Aqua de vivente fonte est , et de ipso etiam salientes aquae sunt, quae omnes sordes abluunt. Si autem sanguis et aqua in oculo hominis, aut prae senectute aut prae alia infirmitate supra modum attenuantur, ad flumen vadat, aut novam aquam in aliquod vas fundat et desuper inclinans, humorem eiusdem aquae oculis  excipiat, et sic humor ille aquam oculorum suorum quae in ipsis arescit excitat, et eos lucidos reddit.
