Idque auxilium ut minus vehemens, ita magis tutum ; neque umquam periculosum est, etiamsi in medio febris impetu, etiamsi in cruditate adhibetur. Ideoque ubi sanguinem mitti opus est, si incisa vena praeceps periculum est, aut si in parte corporis etiam vitium est, huc potius confugiendum est : cum eo tamen, ut sciamus, hic ut nullum periculum, ita levius praesidium esse ; nec posse vehementi malo, nisi aeque vehemens auxilium succurrere.
