indicates acute diseases of the kidneys。



  36。 Whenever the aforementioned symptoms occur in nephritic

diseases; and along with them acute pains about the muscles of the

back; provided these be seated about the external parts; you may

expect that there will be an abscess; but if the pains be rather about

the internal parts; you may also rather expect that the abscess will

seize a person very ill of quinsy; for in this case the disease is

diverted outwardly。



  50。 When the brain is attacked with sphacelus; the patients die in

three days; or if they escape these; they recover。



  51。 Sneezing arises from the head; owing to the brain being

heated; or the cavity (ventricle) in the head being filled with

humors; the air confined in it then is discharged; and makes a

noise; because it comes through a narrow passage。



  52。 Fever supervening on painful affections of the liver removes the

pain。



  53。 Those persons to whom it is beneficial to have blood taken

from their veins; should have it done in spring。

  60。 Fasting should be prescribed the those persons who have humid

  61。 When there are changes in the whole body; and the body becomes

sometimes cold and sometimes hot; and the color changes; a

protracted disease is indicated。



  62。 A copious sweat; hot or cold; constantly flowing; indicates a

superabundance of humidity; we must evacuate then; in a strong

person upward; and in a weak; downward。



  63。 Fevers; not of the intermittent type; if they become exacerbated

every third day are dangerous; but if they intermit in any form

whatever; this shows that they are not dangerous。



  64。 In cases of protracted fever; either chronic abscesses or

pains in the joints come on。



  65。 When chronic abscesses (phymata) or pains in the joints take

place after fevers; the patients are using too much food。



  66。 If one give to a person in fever the same food which is given to

a person in good health; what is strength to the one is disease to the

other。



  67。 We must look to the urinary evacuations; whether they resemble

those of persons in health; if not at all so; they are particularly

of more copious; and if deficient; of less copious collections of it。



  70。 The sputa in fevers; not of an intermittent type; which are

livid; streaked with blood; and fetid; are all bad; it is favorable

when this evacuation; like the urinary and alvine; passes freely;

and whenever any discharge is suppressed and not purged off it is bad。



  71。 When you wish to purge the body; you must bring it into a

state favorable to evacuations; and if you wish to dispose it to

evacuations upward; you must bind the belly; and if you wish to

dispose it to evacuations downward; you must moisten the belly。



  72。 Sleep and watchfulness; both of them; when immoderate;

constitute disease。

upward; upon the stoppage of it death。



  81。 In the discharges by the bladder; the belly; and the flesh

(the skin?) if the body has departed slightly from its natural

condition; the disease is slight; if much; it is great; if very

much; it is mortal。

symptom。



  85。 Sweats are dangerous when they do not occur on critical days;

when they are strong; and quickly forced out of the forehead; either

in the form of drops or in streams; and if excessively cold and

copious; for such a sweat must proceed from violence; excess of

pain; and prolonged squeezing (affliction?)。



  86。 In a chronic disease an excessive flux from the bowels is bad。



  87。 Those diseases which medicines do not cure; iron (the knife?)

cures; those which iron cannot cure; fire cures; and those which

fire cannot cure; are to be reckoned wholly incurable。
