Paragraph
1 7 | animal is forced to hold its breath for too long a time, for 2 8 | other, of the exhalation of breath; but, about the latter they 3 8 | such animals emit their breath. Indeed, explanation is 4 8 | they must discharge their breath by the same passage as that 5 8 | water they must emit their breath by the mouth or the gills, 6 9 | animals that respire and draw breath there is to be observed 7 10| in and letting out of the breath; for death occurs when the 8 10| that occurs. For when the breath is not let out and the heat 9 10| respire we must draw in the breath. When hot, people breathe 10 11| the passing round of the breath by pushing, by no means 11 11| on continuously when the breath is taken in and let out.~ 12 11| is the letting out of the breath, and hence its admission 13 11| admission and emission of the breath), but treat it as though 14 11| once more of the heated breath. It is also nonsense that 15 11| consequence to draw the breath frequently.~ 16 12| internal fire is fed by the breath; respiration, as it were, 17 12| the outward passage of the breath. To combat this doctrine 18 12| generation of heat from the breath? Observation shows rather 19 13| of respiration. Even the breath which passes through the 20 13| inwards and outwards of the breath, by the theory that there 21 13| the outward motion of the breath results. He compares this 22 13| a forge-bellows when the breath is drawn in-it is quite 23 13| bellows once more, when the breath is let out. The difference 24 16| function as a receptacle of the breath (pneuma)), while gills are 25 17| and in the passage of the breath outwards and inwards. In 26 21| refrigeration, and at the same time breath can easily pass to the source 27 22| the chest according as the breath is admitted or expelled. 28 23| no longer possible, the breath is given out and death ensues.~ 29 25| admission and expulsion of the breath or of water. The following, 30 27| with the passage of the breath outwards and inwards.~It
