Κλεῖδες συμπεφραγμέναι οὐκ εὐαίσθητον οὐδὲ ἐνεργὸν σημαίνουσιν, αἱ δὲ διεστηκυῖαι ἄνανδρον, τὸ δὲ σύμμετρον τῆς ἀνοίξεως αὐτῶν συνετὸν καὶ ἀνδρεῖον. Ὦμοι παχεῖς οὐκ ἐπαινετοί, οἱ δὲ καρτεροὶ ἀν- δρείων ἠθῶν εἰσι, λαγαροὶ δὲ ἀνάνδρων καὶ δειλῶν, οἱ δὲ λεπτοὶ καὶ ὀξεῖς τὰς κορυφὰς κακοηθῶν, εἰ δὲ παντελῶς ἄναρθροι εἶεν, μωρῶν.
