[5]
τῶν γε μὴν κνημῶν τὰ ὀστᾶ παχέα χρὴ εἶναι: ταῦτα γάρ ἐστι στήριγγες τοῦ σώματος: οὐ μέντοι φλεψί γε οὐδὲ σαρξὶ παχέα: εἰ δὲ μή, ὅταν ἐν σκληροῖς ἐλαύνηται, ἀνάγκη αἵματος ταῦτα πληροῦσθαι καὶ κρισσοὺς γίγνεσθαι, καὶ παχύνεσθαι μὲν τὰ σκέλη, ἀφίστασθαι δὲ τὸ δέρμα. χαλῶντος δὲ τούτου πολλάκις καὶ ἡ περόνη ἀποστᾶσα χωλὸν ἀπέδειξε τὸν ἵππον.
