  • καὶ γὰρ ἐκεῖνοι πολλάκισ, ἐπειδὰν πάντα ποιοῦντεσ κατὰ λόγον τῆσ θεραπείασ καὶ πειθαρχοῦντεσ τοῖσ ἰατροῖσ μὴ δύνωνται τῆσ ἐπὶ τὸ βέλτιον προκοπῆσ ἅψασθαι, δυσθετούμενοι τοῖσ συμβαίνουσιν ἀποδυσπετεῖν ἀναγκάζονται, καὶ τινὲσ μὲν θύταισ καὶ μάντεσι προσέχειν, ἔνιοι δὲ πάσησ ἐπῳδῆσ καὶ παντὸσ περιάμματοσ πεῖραν λαμβάνειν.
