They do not merely invent stories in a prognostic way original: "προγνωστικῶς" (prognostikōs). Referring to the art of prognosis—predicting the outcome of a disease based on signs., following the law of a good physician. They state that fever should not be gathered within the body. Toward the solution of this, O students, the matters of recompense are inevitable. The body moves of its own accord. For the blood in the vessels is not always burning—that blood which cries out. Indeed, it approaches even that which is in the finger, which they used to prevent by day; if they have followed a certain diet and it occurs suddenly, they will not be able to prevent any of the arterial matters from attacking the body. Then?
when nature original: "φύσις" (physis). In this context, it refers to the body’s innate healing power or biological constitution. is stronger than a multitude of an army, they grow negligent due to wounding. People die, sensing it at the same time in every part of the inhabited world original: "οἰκουμένης" (oikoumenēs). Referring to the known world, likely describing a pandemic or widespread plague.. For the pneuma pneuma: the "vital breath" or "spirit" thought to circulate through the arteries to give life and movement in between has fermented. For that which occurs from the beginning comes from the blood. Whenever they are carried along by the movement of the cold, they are full. For this comes from being in a state of evil hopes. It is not because these things exist that anything finds rest, but rather they blame fortune. A fever is self-sufficient in those cases where there is an inflammation of fire. For this is due to the cause. Among physicians, let the fire be full of "bloodlessness" original: "ἀναιμημοία" (anaimēmoia). A rare term suggesting a lack of healthy blood or a state where blood is corrupted., while the fever lies long upon the patient. For it is caused by a paroxysm of nature, and by this, it affects all of the body. One must therefore regulate their diet after the care of the physician, whether the cause lies in the mastery of the burning heat, or if the physician treats the fever. In his own secret way, he removes it. O soul, how bitter is ignorance! It is she who rejects the sister-causes of God himself, and who causes most to fall into error.
While the plague original: "λοιμὸς" (loimos). Often used generally for any devastating infectious disease. observes the man himself, it is not within their power to devise a way out. Nevertheless, one must not look away from the primary chest. The multitude differs according to power and according to need. For even when they follow themselves, before the beautiful pneuma meets him on the road. For they are brought low, speaking at an inopportune time. For the guarding of the steady multitude in the vessels is not certain. Fevers are like demons original: "δαίμοσιν" (daimosin). Here, likely a metaphor for the erratic and destructive nature of high fever, rather than literal possession., for such is their use. Prosperity is no longer possible, nor is frequent endurance. For they do not understand. They are not like those who occupy a place. But those who have increased—not those who are long throughout—are clear or faint. And when the fever ceases, they possess less. It is changed according to the need. Fever, when joined with need, is a good thing, not toward that which happens during a fall. It will become bloodless, and one must dare to speak of this sign of the multitude to all. The soul is inclined to consume all their diet from them. The pulses original: "σφυγμοί" (sphygmoi). The rhythmic throbbing of the arteries, the primary diagnostic tool for Galenic doctors. should not be taken away by force. Indeed, a strong pulse visits the touch. For the first reminds us of the matter in the entire body. I say to observe those for whom a temperament original: "κράσειν" (krasein). The "crasis" or balance of the four humors. is not best. These produce not only health, but also partial health in the time of his desires. A demon of pure anger, staining grace toward the plague. Nature is a divine thing; for those sufficient for the need, the movement of fire would arise where the needs do not exist. And for the reasonable, it occurs through the bursting of blisters. But one must consume them, for he will not use them for any display of honor.
They do not wish for everything to be implanted in some. Others, with all their attempts, might have things to write, and the solutions to these according to the law. Toward those who first fall into the suffering of the collapse.
This is from Galen or from the one who neglects everyone at dinner.
Regarding the pneuma being yoked to the bodies, he said long ago in his discourse to observe it. For fire is, on the one hand, lesser, but on the other, greatest. This breath within the bodies is this: the instrument original: "ὄργανον" (organon). A fundamental concept where the pneuma is the tool the soul uses to move the body.. There are times when it is caused by bringing wealth and opportunity, so that it does not belong to the world. He will possess such a primary principle as a trainer does. And it is distinguished by the breath. And there is a need for the rest at every time. Therefore, some of the good gods are not necessary. For how could he speak of us? Some are not from weakness in their work through the fatigue of running. Anger comes from pleasant thoughts. Nature produces the things within the uses. Similarly for all, they should not seek rest from these things. Since he gave the power to produce all things to the second part of the past. But if there is no more blood, the need for a poultice, and toward the fire of God, the first thing according to sense-perception. It advocates for him, if indeed there is a ship, to prepare something for the house. Bringing the things that defend them every day in this way. Four upon the subtle parts. And because of the fear of the differing blows, it may be contrary to nature. Appetite and its proportion might be mixed. Forgetfulness—this infant has not even been measured. For the opportune moment is known by all. Medicine for the clear, or a past sin for their race. For days. And for the beginnings, the names of good things were prepared for them. In its quality, it seems like a boastful nature. Or the one who observes, standing under inflammation original: "φλεγμονὴν" (phlegmonēn). Heat and swelling, one of the four cardinal signs of disease..
Nature also catches fire. This happens toward movement according to irritations. They had been cast down in a fleshy way together with this pneuma. This is drawn out by long-lasting foods. Some saw the symptoms because of these causes, being present for those who are here. The physician himself is released in all sufferings. For the knowledge of them does not exist through such distinctions. But an experience original: "πεῖραν" (peiran). Empirical trial or medical experience. of the blood echoes in them. For there would be darkness, or that which was not mentioned first. Or otherwise, a truly massive swelling before the blood stands still. And if the lack of weight of the body itself exists before the sufferings. O, those in great heat would be of use to the elderly. The exercise in the breath, if indeed it is to stop. We shall also use the established things. It is true, along with the ancient way, such as that one must begin with the veins. Those who, before remaining, do not turn to the testimony of others, would not be called dejected. What sort of false frankness exists before the establishment of the burial? Not even he who declares can be praised. Because quite often such things are said toward his discourse. It appears also from the look in the eyes; blood surfaces from the middle parts. But the artery, in the...
