75.

ἢν δὲ ἐς τοὔπισθεν μέρος ἐκπεπτώκῃ ὁ μηρὸς, τὰς

μὲν κατατάσιας καὶ ἀντιτάσιας οὕτω δεῖ ποιέεσθαι, καθάπερ εἴρηται: ἐπιστορέσαντα δὲ ἐπὶ τὸ ξύλον ἱμάτιον πολύπτυχον, ὡς μαλακώτατον ἔῃ, πρηνέα κατακλίναντα τὸν ἄνθρωπον, οὕτω κατανείνειν: άμα δὲ τῇ κατατάσει χρὴ τῇ σανίδι καταναγκάζειν τὸν αὐτὸν τρόπον ὡς τὰ ὑβώματα, κατ᾽ ἴξιν τοῦ πυγαίου ποιησάμενον τὴν σανίδα, καὶ μᾶλλον ἐς τὸ κάτω μέρος, ἢ ἐς τὸ ἄνω τῶν ἰσχίων: καὶ ἡ ἐντομὴ, ἡ ἐν τῷ τοίχῳ τῇ σανίδι, μὴ εὐθεῖα ἔστω, ἀλλ᾽ ὀλίγον καταφερὴς πρὸς τὸ τῶν ποδῶν μέρος.

αὕτη ἡ ἐμβολὴ κατὰ φύσιν τε μάλιστα τῷ τρόπῳ τούτῳ τοῦ ὀλισθήματός ἐστι, καὶ ἅμα ἰσχυροτάτη.

Ἀρκέσειε δ᾽ ἂν ἴσως ἀντὶ τῆς σανίδος καὶ ἐφεζόμενόν τινα, ἢ τῇσι χερσὶν ἐρεισάμενον, ἢ ἐπιβάντα, ἐξαπίνης ἐπαιωρηθῆναι ἅμα τῇ κατατάσει.

ἄλλη δὲ οὐδεμίη ἐμβολὴ τῶν προειρημένων κατὰ φύσιν ἐστὶ τῷ τρόπῳ τούτῳ τοῦ ὀλισθήματος.
