22. Ἰήθη ἐλλεβόρου πόσει Λυκίη· τὰ ὕστατα σπλὴν μέγας, καὶ ὀδύναι, καὶ κυρετὸς, καὶ ἐς ὦμον ὀδύναι· καὶ ἡ φλὲψ, ἡ κανὰ σπλῆνα, ἐπ᾿ ἀγκῶνι ἐτέτατο· καὶ ἔσφυζε μὲν πολλάκις, ἔστι δ᾿ ὅτε καὶ [οὒ] οὐκ ἐτμήθη, ἀλλ᾿ ἅμα ἱδρῶτι διῆλθεν, ἢ αὐτόματον· ἐξ οὗ, διώντων, ὁ σπλὴν, τὰ δεξιὰ ἐνετείνετο, πνεῦμα ἐνεδιπλασιάζετο, οὐ μὴν μέγα· καρεφέρετο, περιεσπέλλετο· φῦσα ἐνεοῦσα· οὐ διῄει κάτω οὐδὲν, οὐδὲ οὔρει· ἀπέθανε πρὸ τοῦ τόκου.
