nam quid praeterea facere ictum posse reamur oblatum, nisi discutere ac dissolvere quaeque? fit quoque uti soleant minus oblato acriter ictu relicui motus vitales vincere saepe, vincere, et ingentis plagae sedare tumultus inque suos quicquid rursus revocare meatus et quasi iam leti dominantem in corpore motum discutere ac paene amissos accendere sensus.
For what else do we think the inflicted blow able to do, unless to strike all apart and to break it apart? It happens also that when the inflicted blow is less violent, the remaining vital motions often prevail, they prevail and quiet the vast tumult of the blow, and call everything back again into its accustomed channels, and shake off the movement of death which already, as one may say, was lording it in the body, and once more kindle the sensations which were almost lost.
