καὶ ἐπὶ κώλῳ καὶ γαστρὶ ἴκτερος, ἤνπερ εἰς πέψιν ἡ γαστὴρ καὶ τὸ κῶλον κακωθῇ· καὶ γὰρ καὶ ἐν κώλῳ πέψις, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦδε ἡ ἐς τὸ ἧπαρ ἀναγωγὴ τροφῆς. ἢν οὖν ὠμοτέρην τὸ ἧπαρ τὴν ἄλλην τροφὴν λάβῃ, τὴν μὲν ἰδίην ἐργασίην πονέει, τὴν δὲ ὀθνείην ἐᾷ.Although I have adopted Ermerins’ change of ὠμότερον into -ην, I must say I am still not satisfied with this sentence. τὸ γὰρ ἐν τῇ ἀναδόσι αἷμα τὴν ἀεργίην τὴν τοῦ κώλου ἐπέχον διασπείρει παντὶ χεόμενον· ἀπεψίη δὲ ἡ ἐν κώλῳ χολῆς ἐστι ἐργασίη.This sentence is evidently in an unsatisfactory state.
