Τὸ τοίνυν ποιητικὸν καὶ φυλακτικὸν τῆς νόσου γένοιτ᾽ ἂν αἴτιον, ὡς ἐλέγομεν, καὶ διὰ τοῦτο πρὸς ἐκεῖνό γε ἀναχθήσεται τό γε μὴν φυλακτικὸν τῆς ὑγείας, κἂν μὴ ποιητικὸν αἴτιον ᾖ τῆς αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τοῦ αὐτοῦ, πρὸς τὸ ποιητικὸν ὅμως ἀνάγεται· ἐπανορθωτικὰ γὰρ τετύχηκεν ὄντα τῷ γένει τὰ φυλακτικὰ τῶν αἰτίων, ὡς καὶ Ἀρεταῖος ἐν τῷ περὶ φυλακτικῶν
