Ubi aliquid eiusmodi sensimus, protinus abstinere a sole, balineo, vino, venere debemus; inter quae unctione et adsueto cibo nihilo minus uti licet. Ambulatione tantum acri sed tecta utendum est; post eam caput atque os supra quinquagiens perfricandum. Raroque fit ut, si biduo vel certe triduo nobis temperavimus, id vitium non levetur. Quo levato, si in destillatione crassa facta pituita est, vel in gravedine nares magis patent, balineo utendum est, multaque aqua prius calida, post egelida fovendum os caputque; deinde cum cibo pleniore vinum bibendum. At si aeque tenuis 40 die pituita est, vel nares aeque clausae videntur, adsumendum est vinum Aminaeum austerum, dein rursus biduo aqua; post quae ad balneum et ad consuetudinem revertendum est.
