1. Μέγα μέρος ἡγέομαι τῆς τέχνης εἶναι τὸ δύνασθαι κατασκοπέεσθαι περὶ τῶν γεγραμμένων ὀρθῶς· ὁ γὰρ γνοὺς καὶ χρεόμενος τούτοισιν οὐκ ἄν μοι δοκέῃ μέγα σφάλλεσθαι κατὰ τὴν τέχνην. Δεῖ δὴ καταμανθάνειν τὴν κατάστασιν τῶν ὡρῶν ἀκριβῶς καὶ τῶν νούσων ἑκάστης· ὅ τι ἀγαθὸν, καὶ ὅ τι κινδυνῶδες, ἢ ἐν τῇ καταστάσει, ἢ ἐν τῇ νούσῳ· μακρὸν ὅ τι νούσημα καὶ θανάσιμον· μακρὸν, ὅ τι περιεστικόν· ὀξὺ, ὅ τι θανάσιμον· ὀξὺ, ὅ τὶ περιεστικὸν. Τάξιν τῶν κρισίμων ἐκ τουτέων σκοπεῖσθαι, καὶ τὸ προλέγειν ἐκ τούτων εὐπορέεται· ἔτι δὲ ἀπὸ τούτων ἔστιν οὓς, ὅτε καὶ ὡς δεῖ διαιτῇν.
