29. Σταφυλή· ἢν σταφυλὴ ἐν τῇ φάρυγγι γένηται, ἐμπίπλαται ἄκρος ὁ γαργαρεὼν ὕδατος, καὶ γίνεται στρογγύλος τὸ ἄκρον καὶ διαφανὴς, καὶ ἐπιλαμβάνει τὴν πνοιὴν, καὶ ἢν φλεγμαίνῃ τὰ σιαγόνια ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν, ἀποπνίγεται· ἢν δὲ αὐτὸ ἐφ’ ἑωυτοῦ γένηται, τούτων μὴ φλεγμηνάντων, ἧσσον ἀποθνήσκει. Ὅταν οὕτως ἔχῃ, λαβὼν τῷ δακτύλῳ τὸν γαργαρεῶνα, ἄνω ἐς τὴν ὑπερώην ἀποπιέσας, διαταμέειν ἄκρον· ἔπειτα διδόναι ἀναγαργαρίζειν τὸ ἀπὸ τῶν φύλλων· λείχειν δὲ ἄλητον ψυχρὸν, καὶ ὕδωρ ἐπιπίνειν, καὶ μὴ λούεσθαι.
