πῶς μὲν σὖν τρέφεται τὰ ζᾧα καὶ ἐκ 5 τίνος καὶ τίνα τρὸπον ἀναλαμβάνουσιν ἐκ τῆς κοιλίας ἐν τοῖς περὶ γενέσεωος λόγοις μἀλλον ἁρμόζει σκοπεῖν καὶ λέγειν· συνισταμένων δὲ τῶν μορίων ἐκ τού αἵματος, καθάπερ εἴπομεν, εὐλόγως ἡ τῶν φλεβῶν ῥύσις διὰ παντὸς τοῦ σώμακτος πέφυκεν· δεῖ γὰρ καὶ τὸ αἷμα διὰ παντὸς καὶ παρὰ πάν εἶναι, εἴπερ τῶν μορίων ἕκαστον ἐκ τούτου συνέστηκεν.
