4.

ἔστι δὲ καὶ ἄλλη ἐμβολὴ, ᾗ κατωμίζουσιν ἐς ὀρθόν: μείζω μέντοι εἶναι χρὴ τὸν κατωμίζοντα, διαλαβόντα δὲ τὴν χεῖρα, ὑποθεῖναι τὸν ὦμον τὸν ἑωυτοῦ ὑπὸ τὴν μασχάλην ὀξύν: κἄπειτα

ὑποστρέψαι, ὡς ἂν ἐνίζηται ἕδρῃ, οὕτω στοχασάμενον ὅκως ἀμφὶ τὸν ὦμον τὸν ἑωυτοῦ κρεμάσαι τὸν ἄνθρωπον κατὰ τὴν μασχάλην: αὐτὸς δὲ ἑωυτὸν ὑψηλότερον ἐπὶ τοῦτον τὸν ὦμον ποιεέτω, ἢ ἐπὶ τὸν ἕτερον: τοῦ δὲ κρεμαμένου τὸν βραχίονα πρὸς τὸ ἑωυτοῦ στῆθος προσαναγκαζέτω ὡς τάχιστα: ἐν τούτῳ δὲ τῷ σχήματι προσανασειέτω, ὁκόταν μετεωρίσῃ τὸν ἄνθρωπον, ὡς ἀντιῤΡ῾έποι τὸ ἄλλο σῶμα αὐτῷ, ἀντίον τοῦ βραχίονος τοῦ κατεχομένου: ἢν δὲ ἄγαν κοῦφος ἔῃ ὁ ἄνθρωπος, προσεπικρεμασθήτω τούτου ὄπισθέν τις κοῦφος παῖς.

αὗται δὲ αἱ ἐμβολαὶ πᾶσαι κατὰ παλαίστρην εὔχρηστοί εἰσιν, ὅτι οὐδὲν ἀλλοίων ἀρμένων δέονται ἐπεισενεχθῆναι: χρήσαιτο δ᾽ ἄν τις καὶ ἄλλοθι.
