1. Περὶ δὲ ἀδένων οὐλομελίης ὧδε ἔχει. Φύσις μὲν αὐτέῃσι σπογγώδης, ἀραιαὶ μὲν καὶ πίονες, καὶ ἔστιν οὔτε σαρκία ἴκελα τῷ ἄλλῳ σώματι, οὔτε ἄλλο τι ὅμοιον τῷ σώματι, ἀλλὰ ψαφαρὰ καὶ φλέβας ἔχει συχνάς· εἰ δὲ διατάμοις, αἱμοῤῥαγίη λάβρος· τὸ εἶδος λευκαὶ καὶ οἷον φλέγμα, ἐπαφομένῳ δὲ οἷον εἴρια· κἢν ἐργάσῃ τοῖς δακτύλοις ἐπιπουλὺ βιησάμενος, ἡ ἀδὴν ὑγρὸν ἀφίησιν ἐλαιῶδες, καὶ αὐτὴ θρύπτεται πολλὰ καὶ ἐξαπόλλυται.
