1005 III, 5 | the source from which they obtain nutriment and as to the 1006 III, 4 | This advantage will be obtained if each side have its own 1007 III, 1 | it serviceable to them in obtaining the mastery over their prey, 1008 III, 3 | annoyance from the food. To obviate this, however, nature has 1009 III, 3 | has been even seen on many occasions inside the stomach itself, 1010 III, 14| very short, for the time occupied in the transition of food 1011 III, 15| former the rennet neither occupies the large paunch, nor the 1012 III, 10| of the kind has ever yet occurred. Why, again, does not the 1013 III, 10| the possibility of such an occurrence accepted in Caria, that 1014 I, 1 | the results of incidental occurrences during their development; 1015 II, 4 | coagulate, this process occurring only in the other and earthy 1016 III, 4 | so that the middle and odd one may serve as a centre 1017 II, 16| without nostrils, and perceive odours either through gills, or 1018 I, 1 | should be able to form a fair off-hand judgement as to the goodness 1019 III, 1 | Moreover, as their weapons of offence consist of this beak and 1020 III, 5 | the other vessels are but offshoots from them. Now that these 1021 I, 1 | that are quite distinct yet oftentimes present many identical phenomena, 1022 III, 9 | and this is the reason why oily matter is light, and floats 1023 II, 10| animals as have nostrils olfaction is effected by means of 1024 II, 16| this beak are placed the olfactory passages. But there are 1025 I, 5 | treat of animals, without omitting, to the best of our ability, 1026 III, 5 | fluidity. Thus, then, in the oneness of the part in which is 1027 II, 13| while to counterbalance the opacity of the water she has made 1028 I, 3 | the bifurcations must be opposites, like White and Black, Straight 1029 II, 1 | relations between these two orders of parts are determined 1030 I, 1 | For every germ implies two organisms, the parent and the progeny. 1031 I, 5 | painter or sculptor, and the original realities themselves were 1032 I, 1 | than that mortal animals so originated. For order and definiteness 1033 II, 1 | cause in which it ends. The originating cause is the primary efficient 1034 III, 4 | themselves have distinct origins. This advantage will be 1035 III, 2 | have but a single horn; the Oryx, for instance, and the so-called 1036 II, 8 | is what is known as the os sepiae, and in the Calamaries 1037 II, 9 | resemblance between the osseous and the vascular systems; 1038 I, 1 | passage breaks open the outlets of the nostrils; air and 1039 I, 3 | then, we must define at the outset by multiplicity of differentiae. 1040 III, 7 | to the body through the outstretched structures, like so many 1041 III, 9 | should these organs become over-fat and diseased, deadly pains 1042 III, 7 | body becomes sickly from over-repletion with nutriment. Often, too, 1043 II, 7 | stands erect. For the heat, overcoming any opposite inclination, 1044 III, 7 | the kidneys, no one can overlook their double character. 1045 I, 1 | the womb. In so saying he overlooked the fact that propagation 1046 III, 10| undisturbed, and not be overwhelmed, directly food is taken, 1047 II, 2 | in which the substratum owes its heat to an external 1048 II, 8 | known by the general name of oysters. For in all these animals 1049 II, 9 | joint, to serve as a kind of padding, and prevent the two extremities 1050 II, 2 | causes the sensation to be painful. Again, of two things, that 1051 I, 5 | the mimetic skill of the painter or sculptor, and the original 1052 I, 1 | For like a physician in a painting, or like a flute in a sculpture, 1053 III, 7 | left, hot and cold, are pairs of contraries; and right 1054 III, 14| to give hardness to the palate. The camel ruminates like 1055 II, 15| the latter to act like the palisades which are sometimes placed 1056 II, 2 | and females than males. Parmenides, for instance, and some 1057 III, 14| the fish called Scarus (Parrot-fish) is an example. And this 1058 III, 13| this is that these parts partake of the character of blood-vessels, 1059 III, 6 | and some that are aquatic partaking so largely of the land character, 1060 I, 5 | bodily member subserves some partial end, that is to say, some 1061 III, 10| the midriff as a kind of partition-wall and fence, and so separated 1062 II, 4 | boars are so choleric and so passionate. For their blood is exceedingly 1063 III, 5 | Such haemorrhages are of a passive kind, and not violent as 1064 III, 4 | placed in the centre of the pectoral region; but in man it inclines 1065 I, 1 | into consideration special peculiarities; or whether we are to start 1066 I, 1 | each kind in hand inde. pendently of the rest, or ought we 1067 II, 10| sensation, they say, cannot penetrate to parts that are too thickly 1068 II, 16| are without nostrils, and perceive odours either through gills, 1069 I, 1 | picture, in the one case perceptible to mind, in the other to 1070 II, 3 | living body, but become perceptibly cold and coagulate so soon 1071 III, 9 | which the residual matters percolate. For the blood which is 1072 III, 9 | excretion to collect by the percolation of the fluid through the 1073 I, 1 | to the germ; for germ and perfected progeny are related as the 1074 III, 14| teeth, only imperfectly performs its office as regards the 1075 II, 5 | formed of them it would perish. For an animal is an animal 1076 III, 5 | irrigation the largest dykes are permanent, while the smallest are 1077 I, 2 | iteration. Again it is not permissible to break up a natural group, 1078 III, 6 | whose heart presents this phenomenon of jumping, inasmuch as 1079 I, 1 | the works of nature, and philosophers diverted their attention 1080 I, 1 | which are set forth in the philosophical treatises. There is, however, 1081 I, 1 | ancient writers, who first philosophized about Nature, busied themselves, 1082 II, 7 | and forms defluxions of phlegm and serum. We must suppose, 1083 III, 10| the process of thinking (Phronein). in reality, however, it 1084 II, 2 | are the foundations of the physical elements.~Is then the term 1085 I, 1 | the axe or the auger; the physiologist, by air and by earth. Of 1086 III, 1 | in collecting seeds and picking up minute animals. In such 1087 I, 1 | forming for himself a definite picture, in the one case perceptible 1088 II, 17| gad-flies and cattle-flies can pierce through the skin of man, 1089 III, 7 | hot stomach. Such are the pigeon, the hawk, and the kite. 1090 II, 13| with the lower lid; whereas pigeons and the like use both upper 1091 I, 3 | Horses, Oxen, Dogs in India, Pigs, Goats, Sheep; groups which, 1092 III, 5 | whole fabric. For as in plaited work the parts hold more 1093 III, 8 | feathers or scales or scaly plates-all these animals, owing to 1094 III, 1 | be the teeth called into play.~What has just been said 1095 II, 17| object of desire is the pleasant. The part, however, by which 1096 I, 5 | destined to minister to some Plenary sphere of action. Thus the 1097 II, 9 | the body to be made of a pliable and not of a brittle substance. 1098 II, 1 | homogeneous parts, either from a plurality of them, or from a single 1099 I, 1 | diverted their attention to political science and to the virtues 1100 I, 2 | other natural groups have no popular names; for instance, the 1101 III, 8 | cannot exhale through the porous flesh, as it does in birds 1102 II, 17| required for vocal pur, poses, it is adherent. In some 1103 II, 1 | endowed with a property in posse that is acted on by that 1104 II, 7 | those animals to whom that posture is natural, and from the 1105 III, 4 | they contain, and the more potent its action. Thus it is that 1106 III, 5 | one-ness is not only actual but potential, whereas in some bloodless 1107 I, 1 | it, and the relation of potentiality to actuality we know.~There 1108 II, 7 | unless indeed it be, as the Poulp, by analogy. For where there 1109 I, 4 | existences, it will be well, if practicable, to examine these ultimate 1110 III, 6 | the question. For man is practically the only animal whose heart 1111 II, 16| said is her not uncommon practice, has used it for two distinct 1112 I, 1 | which must necessarily precede the statue; for this cannot 1113 I, 3 | instance, Manycleft-footed preceded by Cleft-footed. The very 1114 II, 8 | body. Its right to this precedence can also be demonstrated 1115 I, 1 | parts.~The reason why our predecessors failed in hitting upon this 1116 I, 1 | or mode of composition in preference to the material; or, if 1117 II, 1 | different property for simple prehension. For this reason the active 1118 III, 14| stomach, so as to form a preparatory store-house for the unreduced 1119 II, 13| the similarly constructed prepuce, unite again when once cut.~ 1120 III, 9 | numerous small kidneys, and not presenting one unbroken surface like 1121 II, 16| animals except man is to preserve and guard the teeth; and 1122 II, 9 | length of an animal and preserves its straightness. But since 1123 II, 14| to protect the head, by preserving it from excess of either 1124 II, 1 | property to enable it to effect pressure, and another and different 1125 II, 1 | house does not include nor presuppose that of house-building; 1126 II, 1 | house-building includes and presupposes that of the house; but the 1127 II, 9 | strong, the same reason prevailing as in the case of the Vivipara. 1128 II, 16| very length would then have prevented the animal from supplying 1129 II, 16| that its excessive weight prevents it from passing rapidly 1130 II, 8 | Crabs) and the Carabi (Prickly Lobsters); it is the case 1131 III, 10| following circumstances. The priest of Zeus Hoplosmios had been 1132 III, 5 | of the part in which it primarily abides. In sanguineous animals 1133 I, 5 | For no one can look at the primordia of the human frame-blood, 1134 I, 5 | but the house; and so the principal object of natural philosophy 1135 II, 2 | that cold is not a mere privation, but an actual existence.~ 1136 I, 3 | terms in their character of privatives admit of no subdivision. 1137 III, 14| an example. And this is probably the reason why this fish 1138 II, 10| heart, from which sensation proceeds, is in the front part of 1139 II, 2 | is hotter in the sense of producing flame and burning. The term 1140 I, 1 | however, to both germ and product is the organism from which 1141 II, 4 | of passion. For anger is productive of heat; and solids, when 1142 I, 1 | of the method used by a professor in his exposition. To be 1143 I, 1 | of two distinct kinds of proficiency; one of which may be properly 1144 III, 2 | detriment rather than of profit to their possessors. Similarly 1145 II, 5 | reason fat animals are less prolific than others. For that part 1146 III, 6 | their smaller bulk. For heat promotes growth, and abundance of 1147 II, 17| that are most capable of pronouncing letters are such as have 1148 I, 1 | overlooked the fact that propagation implies a creative seed 1149 II, 7 | demands free ventilation, proportionate to its bulk. For if the 1150 II, 14| other animal, it requires a proportionately greater amount of protection. 1151 II, 9 | Vivipara in their bodily proportions are far above other animals, 1152 I, 3 | division, as we see in the proposed dichotomies. But privative 1153 I, 1 | in what cases also the proposition expressing hypothetical 1154 III, 1 | looks directly in front (proso) and the only one whose 1155 III, 1 | called the face, this name, (prosopon) being, it would seem, derived 1156 II, 17| while in the mouth it can be protruded to a great distance. In 1157 III, 14| the stomach itself has a protuberance in some part, or is strong 1158 I, 3 | appellations; and which, if single, prove that Wildness and Tameness 1159 III, 6 | that the lung exists as a provision to meet the jumping of the 1160 III, 14| that have none of these provisions, but merely an elongated 1161 II, 14| the axillae, nor on the pubes, as man has. Their hair, 1162 I, 2 | bifurcations, as is done in the published dichotomies, where some 1163 III, 2 | from such as are fierce and pugnacious. The Bonasus again, whoe 1164 II, 17| process. Unless therefore one pulls their mouth very widely 1165 II, 7 | Just the same occurs when pulse and other fruits are boiled. 1166 II, 17| is not required for vocal pur, poses, it is adherent. 1167 II, 10| to by parts that have the purest blood. For the motion of 1168 II, 17| of the Testacea. In the Purpurae, for instance, so strong 1169 I, 5 | much for the method to be pursued. Let us now try to set forth 1170 III, 9 | the left, they must all push upwards in advance of their 1171 III, 14| be stored up and undergo putrefaction and concoction. There is 1172 II, 9 | influence, becomes manifestly putrid. Now the centre or origin 1173 I, 2 | Birds for instance, by putting its members under different 1174 III, 5 | either quantitative or qualitative; for all substances are 1175 III, 5 | be of two kinds, either quantitative or qualitative; for all 1176 II, 11| take in sounds from every quarter.~ 1177 II, 10| themselves, but sounds from all quarters. The organs of vision are 1178 III, 14| of the intestine causes quick return of appetite. And 1179 III, 5 | blood first passes when it quits the heart; and all the other 1180 II, 17| variable, and this whethe+r we compare them as a class 1181 II, 7 | falls back to the earth as rain. These, however, are matters 1182 III, 9 | in the fact that men even raise the right eyebrow more than 1183 III, 1 | horns of ewes from those of rams. It explains also why the 1184 III, 2 | delivered with the widest range. But as the bull has no 1185 I, 3 | differentiae, under which are ranged all the ultimate and indivisible 1186 I, 2 | dichotomies, where some birds are ranked with animals of the water, 1187 II, 9 | those that live a life of rapine. Thus it is that the bones 1188 II, 1 | or lightness, density or rarity, roughness or smoothness, 1189 III, 3 | to prevent it from being rasped by particles as they pass 1190 I, 1 | however, and the mode of ratiocination are different in natural 1191 II, 13| the light and catch its rays, and so see more plainly. 1192 I, 1 | alternate discharge and re-entrance of heat and the inflow of 1193 I, 3 | dichotomist.~The impossibility of reaching the definition of any of 1194 III, 9 | its shell allows of the ready transpiration of fluid; 1195 I, 5 | sculptor, and the original realities themselves were not more 1196 I, 1 | to be produced before its realization in the material. As with 1197 I, 1 | such final object is to be realized, it is necessary that such 1198 I, 5 | the humbler animals. Every realm of nature is marvellous: 1199 III, 8 | blood. To such it was but reasonable that she should give this 1200 III, 4 | truth of these statements receives its clearest demonstration. 1201 III, 4 | hollow to serve for the reception of the blood, while its 1202 I, 1 | the man, seeing that he is recognizable by his shape and colour. 1203 I, 4 | whether they are groups recognized by a true instinct of mankind, 1204 I, 5 | formation. We therefore must not recoil with childish aversion from 1205 I, 1 | themselves identical but recurring in animals specifically 1206 III, 3 | into the stomach. For, when red wine is taken, the dejections 1207 I, 1 | writers, while they try to refer their origin to this cause, 1208 II, 2 | properties of many substances are referable to these two elementary 1209 I, 3 | the dichotomies already referred to. For some groups, Ants 1210 III, 7 | becomes hard owing to the reflux into it of the fluid; just 1211 II, 7 | through the blood-vessels, its refuse portion is chilled by the 1212 III, 7 | organs. For they may be regarded either as constituting each 1213 III, 14| coil. For so nature can regulate her expenditure and prevent 1214 I, 4 | otherwise there will be endless reiteration, as has already been pointed 1215 III, 14| various operations that relate to the food and its residue. 1216 III, 1 | accounts for similar facts relating to all other such parts.~ 1217 III, 4 | brought about by traction and relaxation. The heart therefore, which, 1218 II, 8 | have now to consider the remaining homogeneous parts, and will 1219 II, 3 | actually fluid. The same remark applies also to hot bodies 1220 II, 14| therefore defer any further remarks we may have to make on these 1221 III, 3 | contrivance of nature to remedy the vicious position of 1222 III, 9 | combustion, so also does a remnant of the heat that has been 1223 I, 4 | Bird and Fish are more remote and only agree in having 1224 II, 4 | will not coagulate after removal of the earth. But if the 1225 III, 4 | maintained even when they are removed; while it is self-evident 1226 III, 9 | kidney, and the resulting renal excretion to collect by 1227 I, 4 | this course would involve repeated mention of the same attribute, 1228 I, 3 | any of its parts, as has repeatedly been observed.)~Further, 1229 I, 1 | necessarily involve frequent repetitions as to characters, themselves 1230 II, 9 | called, the fish-spines are replaced by cartilage. For it is 1231 III, 4 | place, according to their representation, there would be many sources 1232 I, 5 | would be strange if mimic representations of them were attractive, 1233 II, 17| there is a kind of shabby representative of a tongue, much like what 1234 III, 10| in Homer to support them, representing him as alluding to this 1235 II, 3 | case with the fluid which represents the blood. This explains 1236 I, 5 | functions and affections are Reproduction, Growth, Copulation, Waking, 1237 II, 5 | animals there is either no reproductive excretion at all, or only 1238 I, 5 | and the like-without much repugnance. Moreover, when any one 1239 III, 14| food being moist and not requiring much concoction, their digestive 1240 II, 13| whereas these are essential requisites for birds, inasmuch as they 1241 III, 5 | have secreted sweat that resembled blood, their body having 1242 III, 1 | mouth merely for nutritive, respiratory, and vocal purposes; whereas 1243 I, 1 | instance, may bring about the restoration of health. The products 1244 II, 17| it best for advancing and retiring in every direction. That 1245 III, 14| into a pulp. For nature retrieves the inefficiency of the 1246 I, 5 | distaste; for each and all will reveal to us something natural 1247 II, 7 | of the lung is hotter and richer in blood in man than in 1248 III, 3 | Indeed on many grounds it is ridiculous to say that this is the 1249 III, 2 | animal to have but one horn. Rightly too did she act when she 1250 II, 6 | young animal grows up and ripens into maturity, the marrow 1251 III, 3 | falls down and rises up; rising up during the ingress or 1252 II, 13| knock against the eyes. The risk of collision being thus 1253 II, 4 | the blood of deer and of roes; and for this reason the 1254 II, 13| These lids are made of a roll of skin; and it is because 1255 III, 10| His head still speaking rolled into the dust," instead 1256 III, 4 | gives less heat in a large room than in a small one, so 1257 III, 14| stomach presents no wide and roomy spaces, though their gut 1258 III, 1 | roots. Moreover, in these root-eating birds and in some others 1259 II, 7 | This, however, is but a rough and inaccurate assertion; 1260 I, 1 | is the germ that is the ruling influence and fabricator 1261 III, 14| teeth in the upper jaw also ruminate.~In fishes the teeth are 1262 III, 4 | when animals die not by sacrifice but from disease, and from 1263 III, 4 | furnished by the fact that in no sacrificial victim has it ever been 1264 II, 13| It is as a still further safeguard that all these animals blink, 1265 III, 14| the earthy matter which is saved from the teeth to give hardness 1266 II, 2 | instance, though it is more scalding than flame, yet has no power 1267 I, 4 | feather, in the fish is scale. Such analogies can scarcely, 1268 II, 5 | deficiency of blood, the scantiness of which renders it liable, 1269 I, 1 | which may be properly called scientific knowledge of the subject, 1270 III, 10| of the thorax, acts as a screen to prevent heat mounting 1271 I, 5 | skill of the painter or sculptor, and the original realities 1272 I, 1 | painting, or like a flute in a sculpture, in spite of its name it 1273 III, 8 | kind, have a bladder, the sea-tortoise a large one, the land-tortoises 1274 III, 8 | matter being that in the sea-tortoises the lung is flesh-like and 1275 II, 1 | all other differences are secondary to these, such differences, 1276 III, 9 | are the better enabled to secrete and concoct their fluid; 1277 III, 8 | plates, such an amount of secretion is formed that some special 1278 II, 7 | then, tempers the heat and seething of the heart. In order, 1279 III, 3 | passing over the epiglottis seldom does a particle of it slip 1280 II, 2 | variations of the blood may be selected to illustrate this. For 1281 II, 17| to serve animals in the selection of food, it is not diffused 1282 II, 6 | undergoes concoction, and self-concocted blood is suet or lard; so 1283 III, 2 | strength, whether it be in self-protection or in offensive strife. 1284 III, 12| been stated. Moreover, the self-same viscera present differences 1285 I, 1 | and with the objects of sense-and as therefore the intelligent 1286 II, 17| mouth. As all animals are sensible to the pleasure derivable 1287 II, 1 | confined to a single order of sensibles, and its organ must be such 1288 I, 3 | continuity of a series of sentences coupled together by conjunctive 1289 III, 15| found in the cavity which separates this terminal one from the 1290 II, 8 | what is known as the os sepiae, and in the Calamaries there 1291 II, 17| Cephalopods, such as the Sepias and the Poulps, have some 1292 III, 4 | is unable to tolerate any serious affection. This is but what 1293 II, 8 | would such a junction have served any purpose; but in the 1294 II, 10| the three sense-organs, setting them side by side on a level 1295 II, 17| example, there is a kind of shabby representative of a tongue, 1296 III, 3 | flesh of these animals, and shaped like that of those with 1297 III, 1 | case in swine, or may be sharp-pointed and interlock with those 1298 II, 13| they would not have been sharp-sighted. It is then to ensure keenness 1299 II, 13| heights than other birds, are sharpsighted; while common fowls and 1300 II, 17| through the hard covering of shell-fish, of the spiral snails, for 1301 III, 8 | invests them is dense and shell-like, so that the moisture cannot 1302 II, 15| the former that they may shelter them, like the eaves of 1303 III, 9 | with flesh, so as to form a shield for the heart and neighbouring 1304 III, 7 | anchorlines thrown out from a ship. The great vessel sends 1305 II, 16| rapidity. But as the feet are shorn of their full office, this 1306 III, 14| intended to make up for its shortcomings; the several cavities receiving 1307 II, 17| thus of short duration, shortened also is the separate part 1308 II, 7 | occurs in the production of showers. For when vapour steams 1309 II, 5 | have horns and huckle-bones shows that their composition is 1310 III, 7 | scanty, the body becomes sickly from over-repletion with 1311 III, 3 | when any cause produces sickness and vomiting, it is plain 1312 I, 1 | in which not the faintest sign of haphazard or of disorder 1313 I, 1 | necessity a factor with the same significance in them all; though almost 1314 II, 2 | So much then as to the signification of the terms hot and cold, 1315 III, 2 | naturally undergo division simultaneously and in the same animals. 1316 II, 6 | character, and at the same time sinewy so as to admit of stretching.~ 1317 III, 2 | there remains no other site for them but the head; and 1318 III, 4 | from each other in their sizes, and in their degrees of 1319 I, 5 | they disclose the mimetic skill of the painter or sculptor, 1320 III, 10| times the words, "Cercidas slew man on mam."" Search was 1321 III, 3 | seldom does a particle of it slip into the windpipe.~The animals 1322 III, 3 | prevent any particle from slipping into the windpipe. Should 1323 II, 2 | accidens, the former is the slower to cool, while not rarely 1324 I, 4 | conditions as largeness smallness, softness hardness, smoothness 1325 II, 16| hypozoma; and how the power of smelling depends, like their motion, 1326 II, 8 | embers, and keeps in the smouldering heat. Similar to this seems 1327 II, 17| shell-fish, of the spiral snails, for example, that are used 1328 III, 8 | it does in birds and in snakes and other animals with scaly 1329 II, 13| from aloft, and therefore soar to greater heights than 1330 III, 14| and the rest; in all the solid-hoofed animals also, such as horse, 1331 II, 3 | latter bile; for while blood solidifies when thus separated, yellow 1332 II, 1 | and cold, for instance, solidity and fluidity, and other 1333 II, 4 | productive of heat; and solids, when they have been made 1334 II, 2 | the solid matter is again soluble. What kinds of substances, 1335 I, 5 | problems which we long to solve respecting them, is furnished 1336 II, 16| to which answers must be sought from those who are versed 1337 III, 14| presents no wide and roomy spaces, though their gut is not 1338 II, 9 | when struck, they give off sparks, as though they were stones. 1339 III, 10| instead of "The head of the speaker". So fully was the possibility 1340 III, 10| of the human head, how it speaks after it is cut off. For 1341 I, 1 | discussing each separate species-man, lion, ox, and the like-taking 1342 III, 2 | gazelle. But in all our speculations concerning nature, what 1343 III, 14| return of appetite is also speedy.~It has already been mentioned 1344 I, 5 | minister to some Plenary sphere of action. Thus the saw 1345 III, 4 | their cowardice by their spitefulness.~What has been said of the 1346 II, 8 | however, is such that it splits not longitudinally, like 1347 III, 6 | the dolphin, and all the spouting Cetacea. For many animals 1348 III, 4 | other viscera, but no vessel spreads through the heart. From 1349 I, 1 | chance one; but each germ springs from a definite parent and 1350 II, 14| some a few scattered hairs sprout out under the lower lid. 1351 III, 1 | whether it be a sting, or a spur, or horns, or tusks, or 1352 III, 1 | females are often without spurs in species where the males 1353 II, 3 | proper end of the successive stages of concoction may at last 1354 III, 1 | at all. This explains why stags have horns, while does have 1355 II, 7 | taking away the power of standing upright from those animals 1356 I, 1 | sets about his work. He starts by forming for himself a 1357 I, 1 | of all the elements, but states the ratio (olugos) of their 1358 III, 14| enlarges, allowing it to remain stationary and undergo conversion. 1359 I, 1 | themselves, such as the statuary’s art, which must necessarily 1360 I, 1 | necessarily precede the statue; for this cannot possibly 1361 II, 16| coiling it round their stems. In fact it applies it generally 1362 I, 1 | explanation of each subsequent step that he takes, and of his 1363 II, 3 | locomotion, are provided with a stomachal sac, which is as it were 1364 I, 1 | the fable are turned into stone; if, I say, this be so, 1365 III, 14| fleshy, so as to be able to store up the food for a considerable 1366 III, 14| as to form a preparatory store-house for the unreduced food; 1367 III, 14| in which the food may be stored up and undergo putrefaction 1368 III, 10| than those who tell the story of the human head, how it 1369 III, 9 | there after death. A pair of stout ducts, void of blood, run, 1370 III, 11| membranes those are the stoutest and strongest which invest 1371 III, 14| the way why dogs have to strain so much in discharging their 1372 I, 5 | philosophy. Indeed, it would be strange if mimic representations 1373 I, 5 | as Heraclitus, when the strangers who came to visit him found 1374 III, 4 | some such subservient and strengthening parts.~In no animals does 1375 III, 3 | given to it, that it may stretch when food is introduced; 1376 III, 2 | self-protection or in offensive strife. So also no polydactylous 1377 III, 1 | tusks to such animals as strike in fighting, and serrated 1378 III, 1 | accordingly sows bite instead of striking.~A general principle must 1379 III, 7 | animals, though not of very stringent necessity.~The reason, then, 1380 III, 2 | animals; but they have been stripped of their horns, because 1381 I, 1 | for him to say that by the stroke of his tool this part was 1382 III, 11| those are the stoutest and strongest which invest the heart and 1383 II, 17| contributes in some measure to stunt the development of the tongue. 1384 II, 12| quadruped, is a quadruped of stunted formation.~ 1385 II, 2 | last of these points to a sub-division that may be made in the 1386 III, 5 | channels, which divide and subdivide so as to convey it to all 1387 I, 3 | For if one divides and subdivides, one soon reaches the final 1388 I, 1 | to deal with correlated subjects-one and the same science, for 1389 I, 1 | and explanation of each subsequent step that he takes, and 1390 I, 1 | their several parts, proceed subsequently to treat of the causes and 1391 III, 14| presented by the stomach and its subsidiary parts. For neither in size 1392 III, 2 | deficient. For nature by subtracting from the teeth adds to the 1393 II, 14| gives to one part what she subtracts from another. Thus when 1394 III, 4 | depend upon it can derive succour. A proof that the heart 1395 III, 5 | nutriment and blood are such-becomes thicker from concoction. 1396 III, 15| milk in the stomach of the sucklings. Why it is in the manyplies 1397 II, 6 | then the marrow also has a suety character. In those animals, 1398 III, 3 | they pass downwards, and so suffering damage. On the other hand, 1399 I, 4 | common specific form, it will suffice to state the universal attributes 1400 III, 6 | lung, airlike and void, suffices by itself to cool them for 1401 I, 5 | would involve, as already suggested, useless iteration. For 1402 I, 1 | form.~What has been said suggests the question, whether it 1403 II, 2 | and its coldness is its suitability for sensation and intelligence. 1404 II, 7 | man’s brain there is this superabundant fluidity and coldness; and 1405 II, 13| delicate; while the lids are superadded as a protection from injury. 1406 II, 9 | different parts one and the same superfluity of material. Even in viviparous 1407 III, 10| the abundance of heat then superinduced. For it was to guard against 1408 II, 4 | body is made. For nutriment supplies the material, and the blood 1409 II, 16| prevented the animal from supplying itself with food, being 1410 II, 9 | parts, with one exception, supported by bones, which serve, when 1411 II, 8 | Now in some animals this supporting substance is situated within 1412 I, 5 | discussion, it must not be supposed that it is its material 1413 III, 5 | honourable and of higher supremacy than the hinder aspect, 1414 III, 6 | abundance of blood is a sure indication of heat. Heat, 1415 I, 2 | antecedent differentiae are mere surplusage. Thus in the series Footed, 1416 II, 10| to the blood-vessels that surround the brain; and similarly 1417 II, 16| and of one that lives in swamps. Seeing then that it has 1418 III, 1 | marshes-those, for example, that swim and have webbed feet-the 1419 II, 7 | is most delicate in its sympathies, and is immediately sensitive 1420 II, 9 | osseous and the vascular systems; for each has a central 1421 I, 3 | prove that Wildness and Tameness do not amount to specific 1422 II, 1 | something already endowed with tangible existence, while the final 1423 II, 16| jaws project forwards and taper to a narrow end, so as to 1424 III, 1 | placed at the extremity of a tapering snout. For this form is 1425 I, 5 | animal kingdom an unworthy task, he must hold in like disesteem 1426 II, 17| and the same time for the tasting and for the sucking up of 1427 I, 1 | is plain, then, that the teaching of the old physiologists 1428 II, 16| mouth. With it, too, it tears up trees, coiling it round 1429 I, 4 | somewhat irrational and tedious. Perhaps, then, it will 1430 III, 4 | extend their influence to the temperaments of the animals. For in animals 1431 III, 6 | be some means or other of tempering the heat of the body; and 1432 II, 7 | little heat. The brain, then, tempers the heat and seething of 1433 III, 4 | other animals there is a tendency in the heart to assume a 1434 II, 2 | are designated by the same term-as, for example, is the case 1435 III, 9 | the great vessel does not terminate in the central cavity, but 1436 III, 4 | find in it their ultimate termination. This, indeed, reason would 1437 III, 4 | affection which results from terror already pre-exists; for 1438 III, 14| multiple stomach resembles theirs. For all animals that have 1439 I, 1 | from what they are in the theoretical sciences; of which we have 1440 | thereupon 1441 III, 10| share in the process of thinking (Phronein). in reality, 1442 I, 5 | beautiful.~If any person thinks the examination of the rest 1443 II, 4 | the earthy matter. For the thinner and purer its fluid is, 1444 I, 5 | other in the same relation. Thirdly, the existence of these 1445 III, 6 | animals are little liable to thirst and drink but sparingly, 1446 III, 8 | constituents causes them to be the thirstiest of animals, and makes them 1447 III, 10| outgrowth from the sides of the thorax, acts as a screen to prevent 1448 II, 9 | injurious, acting like a thorn or an arrow lodged in the 1449 III, 14| food, when its goodness is thoroughly exhausted, pass from the 1450 I, 5 | The evidence that might throw light on them, and on the 1451 III, 10| man alone is affected by tickling is due firstly to the delicacy 1452 II, 17| tongue in most cases is tied down and hard, and is therefore 1453 I, 5 | is not bricks, mortar, or timber, but the house; and so the 1454 III, 1 | like habits of life, the tips of the bill end in hard 1455 III, 12| instance, is the case in the toad, the tortoise, and other 1456 II, 6 | described, and the purposes told for which they severally 1457 II, 17| the whole surface of the tongue-like organ, but is placed chiefly 1458 II, 17| the case of those who are tongue-tied in however slight a degree. 1459 III, 4 | blood, as though the vessels took thence their origin. It 1460 I, 1 | that by the stroke of his tool this part was formed into 1461 III, 12| the case in the toad, the tortoise, and other similar animals.~ 1462 I, 5 | relation of such part to the total form. Similarly, the true 1463 I, 5 | their composition, and the totality of the form, independently 1464 I, 5 | pleasure to all who can trace links of causation, and 1465 I, 1 | existence. Nor is it possible to track back the series of necessary 1466 III, 4 | and are brought about by traction and relaxation. The heart 1467 III, 4 | the supreme part to be as tranquil as possible, and this tranquillity 1468 III, 4 | tranquil as possible, and this tranquillity can be ensured by the blood 1469 III, 14| the time occupied in the transition of food is but brief. In 1470 II, 17| their food being so rapidly transmitted to the stomach is that they 1471 III, 9 | shell allows of the ready transpiration of fluid; and for this reason 1472 II, 16| and, whenever they have to traverse the water, they lift this 1473 II, 16| With it, too, it tears up trees, coiling it round their 1474 I, 3 | is only an attribute of a triangle and not part of its essence 1475 II, 15| house, from any fluids that trickle down from the head; the 1476 II, 1 | This is evident if one only tries to define the process of 1477 I, 1 | constitutes the couch and the tripod, it only does so because 1478 III, 1 | retain it for a time while triturating the food, the water would 1479 III, 10| irrational in supposing that the trunk may run forwards to a certain 1480 III, 3 | there must be some sort of tube common to the two divisions 1481 III, 5 | smaller, until at last their tubes are too fine to admit the 1482 II, 4 | or cold, thin or thick, turbid or clear.~The watery part 1483 II, 2 | thickness, of clearness or turbidity, of coldness or heat; and 1484 III, 13| the flesh not only in the turgid aspect of their substance, 1485 II, 11| high up and movable; for by turning themselves about they can 1486 II, 7 | For, when so treated, it turns hard and solid, inasmuch 1487 II, 2 | the more burning of the two-flame, for instance, as compared 1488 I, 3 | both Two-footed, but their two-footedness is diverse and differentiated. 1489 I, 3 | feet into Manycleft, and Twocleft, like those of animals with 1490 II, 17| arrangement they derive a twofold pleasure from savours, their 1491 I, 3 | be available, which are unavailable to the dichotomist.~The 1492 I, 3 | divisible into Barbed and Unbarbed, and feet into Manycleft, 1493 I, 1 | So also there is a like uncertainty as to another point now 1494 I, 3 | animals with bifid hoofs, and Uncleft or Undivided, like those 1495 III, 14| animals it is uniform, when uncoiled, and alike throughout, while 1496 II, 16| what I have said is her not uncommon practice, has used it for 1497 III, 14| passing through them without undergoing concoction; and, of all, 1498 II, 1 | in each case out of the underlying material.)~In order of time, 1499 I, 1 | however, of course, be understood that we only ascribe universal 1500 III, 10| the sensory soul may be undisturbed, and not be overwhelmed, 1501 II, 9 | these animals shall be of an undulating character; and this again 1502 I, 3 | contradictories, Feathered and Unfeathered; we shall find that the 1503 II, 16| indeed their slow motion and unfitness for bending make them useless 1504 I, 5 | constituted by nature some are ungenerated, imperishable, and eternal,
