[A man/Some] became thirsty and hated drinking cold water, and their habit [was] moistening it after four hours, and [with] dryness of half, and his [remedy] with the astringent foods. And the early physicians used to forbid drinking cold water quickly. And when these [things] are cold, [it is] hot [and] useful for the speed of its cooking upon the hot. And it became from what [he] increases [with] the harm of cold water, I strike it... it is [the need] for it. And therefore, [do not] until it is cooked little by little, and it should not be applied to the illness all at once. And if the signs of the prevailing hot bad temperament in the stomach are [present], he places the coolants mubarridat cooling agents on his stomach, a good coolant, except that no effect occurred from it. If [the condition] is hot, it cools, so he cuts the harm and applies upon it a heated oil. [It] may return it to the natural state. And [his] eating of meat at that time, and he should guard the matter of exercise from the purifying food, and no... that on a [mountain/throne], and the hot [person] in his interior, supports it from the navel. And make everything that he eats cold in actuality, a coldness of middle [degree] in the matter, but do not exaggerate in it. A red dot punctuation mark follows. A speaker said that the stomach has a hot bad temperament, and if the heat is mixed, either [with] a moistening humidity or [with] dryness. And [he] set that the badness is mixed with it by humidity, more terrible [than others]. Either that he is afflicted [with] this [in] the [manner] of [al-muhallab/a type of porridge], and do not stop from the heat of his hunger, [but] be familiar with it all at once. For the nerves close to the stomach, cold water harms them because it is [like] the state of food. For if the stomach has a dry bad temperament, it feels [the] nerve in [its] long [thread/fiber] from the nerves with the whole of the body. And as for when it was not, and it did not become clear yet, it did not [affect] the nerves of the body. And therefore the patients [and] the cold water, so if it was with the heat, it is faster [for them] to use [it].
