Καθόλου δὲ τῶν ἐν τῷ σώματι μερῶν τὰ μὲν ἄνω πρὸς τοὺς βελτίονας καὶ ἐντιμοτέρους λάμβανε, πάντα δὲ τὰ ὑποκάτω πρὸς τοὺς ἥττονας καὶ ὑποδεεστέρους . περὶ δὲ ἑκάστου τὸ πρὸς εἶδος ἀπὸ τῆς περὶ σώματος καὶ τῶν ἐν τῷ σώματι μερῶν διαιρέσεως ἐκ τοῦ πρώτου λάμβανε βιβλίου. Πάντα δὲ ἔμετον καὶ αἵματος καὶ τροφῆς καὶ φλέγματος τοῖς μὲν ἀπόροις εἰς ὠφέλειαν κρῖνε, τοῖς δὲ εὐπόροις εἰς βλάβην· οἱ μὲν γὰρ οὐκ ἂν ἀπολέσαιέν τι, εἰ μὴ κτήσαιντο πρότερον· οἱ δὲ ἔχοντές τι καὶ ἀπολλύουσι. Πᾶσαι τροφαὶ τὰ αὐτὰ καὶ βλεπόμεναι αὐτὸ μόνον καὶ ἐσθιόμεναι σημαίνουσι πλὴν κρομμύων· ταῦτα δὲ βλεπόμενα μέν ἀγαθά, ἐσθιόμενα δὲ πονηρά.
