13. Ἄλλος ῥόος ἐπ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς, ὀφθαλμίαι, καὶ οἰδέουσιν αἱ ὄψεις. Εἰ δὲ ἐπὶ ῥῖνας ὁ κατάῤῥους, ὀδάξονται μυκτῆρας, καὶ ἄλλο οὐδὲν δεινόν· αἵ τε γὰρ ὁδοὶ τουτέων εὐρέες καὶ ἱκαναὶ τιμωρέειν σφίσιν· πρὸς δὲ καὶ ἀσύστροφον τὸ ἀπιὸν αὐτέησι. Τὰ δὲ οὔατα σκολιὸς μὲν πόρος καὶ στεινός· ὁ δ’ ἐγκέφαλος πλησίον αὐτέου αὐτοῖσιν ἐμπιέζεται· νοσέων δὲ τὴν νοῦσον ταύτην, τὰ πολλὰ ἀποκρίνει κατὰ τὸ οὖς ἀπὸ τῆς πυκινῆς ῥοῆς ἀνὰ χρόνον, ὤρισταί τε, καὶ ῥέει δυσῶδες πῦον. Οὕτως ἐς τὰ ἔξω δῆλοι τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ ῥόοι καὶ οὐ πάμπαν θανατώδεες.
