Τὸ ταύρειον αἷμά φησι Πραξαγόρας πινόμενον πήγνυσθαι ἐν τῷ στήθει καὶ θρομβοῦσθαι, ἔπειτα, συνεχομένων τῶν πνοῶν, θνήσκειν ποιεῖ, οὐ λανθάνει δὲ πινόμενον, ὥσπερ καὶ τὰ ἄλλα δηλητήρια πολλάκις ἀγνοοῦνται· ἔστι γὰρ εὐτονώτερον τοῦ τῶν ἄλλων ζώων αἵματος, ὡς Ἀριστοτέλης (H. A., III 19 et P. A. II, 4 T. I, p. 520 b, et 35 651 a)· διὸ καὶ ἀφρόνως εἶπεν· τινὲς ἀποκαρτεροῦντες πίνουσιν αὐτὸ καὶ τελευτῶσιν.
