Καὶ προκαταρκτικὰ μέν ἐστι τὰ παρὰ τὴν οὐσίαν ὄντα τοῦ σώματος, ἔξωθέν τε προσπίπτοντα καὶ ἀλλοιοῦντα τὸ σῶμα μεγάλως καὶ μεταβάλλοντα, ὧν τὰ μὲν ἐξ ἀνάγκης ἀλλοιοῖ τὸ σῶμα καὶ μεταβάλλει, οἷς ἀδύνατον αὐτῷ μὴ πλησιάζειν, τὰ δὲ οὐκ ἐξ ἀνάγκης· ἐξ ἀνάγκης μὲν ταῦτα, ἔξ ὄντα τῷ γένει· ἓν μὲν ἀὴρ καὶ ἅπαν τὸ ὁπωσοῦν περιέχον, ἕτερον δὲ ἠρεμία καὶ κίνησις ὅλου τε τοῦ σώματος καὶ κατὰ μόρια, τρίτον ὕπνος καὶ ἐργήγορις, τέταρτον τροφαὶ καὶ πόσεις καὶ ὅλως τὰ προσφερόμενα, πέμπτον τὰ ἐκκρινόμενα καὶ ἐπεχόμενα καὶ ἁπλῶς πλησμονή τε καὶ κένωσις, ἕκτον τὰ τῆς ψυχῆς πάθη, οἷον θυμός, χαρά, λύπη καὶ ὅσα τοιαῦτα.
