[0] Hisdosus Scholasticus ad Chalcid. Plat. Tim. [cod. Paris. I. 8684 s. XII f. 2] ita vitalis calor a sole procedens omnibus quae vivunt vitam subministrat. cui sententiae Heraclitus adquiescens optimam 72 similitudinem dat de aranea ad animam, de tela araneae ad corpus. sic〈ut〉 aranea, ait, stans in medio telae sentit, quam cito musca aliquem filum suum corrumpit itaque illuc celeriter currit quasi de fili perfectione dolens, sic hominis anima aliqua parte corporis laesa illuc festine meat quasi impatiens laesionis corporis, cui firme et proportionaliter iuncta est.
