Concerning the spleen, also, we shall therefore have no further doubts as to whether it attracts what is proper to it, rejects what is foreign, and has a natural power of altering and retaining all that it attracts; nor shall we be in any doubt as to the liver,
veins1,
arteries2, heart, or any other organ. For these four
faculties3 have been shown to be necessary for every part which is to be nourished; this is why we have called these faculties the handmaids of nutrition. For just as human faeces are most pleasing to dogs, so the
residual4 matters from the liver are, some of them, proper to the spleen, others to the gall-bladder, and others to the kidneys.
