[A patient,] even though diseased, who wishes to live [should avoid] physicians devoid of the previously stated qualities / who sell treatments, for they are the precursors of death.
Or it remains in the belly for many years.
That is like nectar for fever patients suffering from fever arising from all [doṣas] enveloped by kapha.
A purgative accompanied by honey and grape juice in the rainy season.
For others, however, from the fourth [month].
For they, in extreme childhood, being severely distressed by the pain of dentition, do not possess fully complete strength of the bodily tissues.
