μάλα μὲν οὖν τὰ πλεῖστα παραπλήσιαί εἰσιν αἱ τιμωρίαι τοῖσί τε ὅλῃσι τῇσι πτισάνῃσι χρεομένοισι, τοῖσί τε τῷ χυλῷ αὐτέῳ: τοῖσι δὲ μηδετέρῳ τουτέων, ἀλλὰ ποτῷ μοῦνον, ἔστιν ὅπη καὶ διαφερόντως τιμωρητέον.

χρὴ δὲ τό γε πάμπαν οὕτω ποιέειν: ἢν νεοβρῶτι ἐόντι αὐτέῳ καὶ κοιλίης μήπω ὑποκεχωρηκυίης ἄρξηται ὁ πυρετὸς, ἤν τε ξὺν ὀδύνῃ, ἤν τε ἄνευ ὀδύνης, ἐπισχεῖν τὴν δόσιν τοῦ Ρ῾οφήματος, ἔστ᾽ ἂν οἴηται κεχωρηκέναι ἐς τὸ κάτω μέρος τοῦ ἐντέρου τὸ σιτίον.

χρέεσθαι δὲ ποτῷ, ἢν μὲν ἄλγημά τι ἔχῃ, ὀξυμέλιτι χειμῶνος

μὲν θερμῷ, θέρεος δὲ, ψυχρῷ: ἢν δὲ πολλὴ δίψα ᾖ, μελικρήτῳ καὶ ὕδατι.

ἔπειτα, ἢν μὲν ἄλγημά τι ἐνῇ, ἢ τῶν ἐπικινδύνων τι ἐμφαίνηται, διδόναι τὸ Ρ῾όφημα μήτε πουλὺ μήτε παχὺ, μετὰ δὲ τὴν ἑβδόμην, ἢν ἰσχύῃ.

ἤν δὲ μὴ ὑπεληλύθῃ ὁ παλαιότερος σῖτος νεοβρῶτι ἐόντι, ἢν μὲν ἰσχύῃ τε καὶ ἀκμάζῃ τῇ ἡλικίῃ, κλύσαι: ἢν δὲ ἀσθενέστερος ᾖ, βαλάνῳ προσχρήσασθαι, ἢν μὴ αὐτόματα διεξίῃ καλῶς.

καιρὸν δὲ τῆς δόσιος τοῦ Ρ῾οφήματος τόνδε μάλιστα φυλάσσεσθαι, κατ᾽ ἀρχὰς καὶ διὰ παντὸς τοῦ νουσήματος: ὅταν μὲν οἱ πόδες ψυχροὶ ἔωσιν, ἐπισχεῖν χρὴ τοῦ Ρ῾οφήματος τὴν δόσιν, μάλιστα δὲ καὶ τοῦ ποτοῦ ἀπέχεσθαι: ὁκόταν δὲ ἡ θέρμη καταβῇ ἐς τοὺς πόδας, τότε διδόναι, καὶ

νομίζειν μέγα δύνασθαι τὸν καιρὸν τοῦτον ἐν πάσῃσι τῇσι νούσοισιν: οὐχ ἥκιστα δὲ ἐν τῇσιν ὀξείῃσι, μάλιστα δὲ ἐν τῇσι μᾶλλον πυρετώδεσι καὶ ἐπικινδυνοτάτῃσιν.

χρέεσθαι δὲ πρῶτον μάλιστα μὲν χυλῷ, ἔπειτα δὲ πτισάνῃ, κατὰ τὰ τεκμήρια τὰ προγεγραμμένα ἀκριβέως θεωρέων.
