Note 637 — BOOK I.—OF THE EPIDEMICS.
Francis Adams translation
The reader will find it interesting to refer here to the Prognostics. See also the Commentary of Galen. Let me here impress upon the reader the necessity of making frequent comparisons of the Prognostics with this work, if he would wish rightly to apprehend the bearing and meaning of the latter. That the Epidemics are entirely founded upon the principles of prognosis there can be no doubt.
