To vypov KOi rh ^y)p6v, " fluid substance and solid 

 substance," " the fluid and the soUd." 



These are two of the Svi'a/xets. 



Following Ogle, I use these renderings as being 

 more in conformity with the definitions given by 

 Aristotle than " the moist and the dry," which have 

 often been used. Actually neither pair of Enghsh 

 words quite expresses the Greek. Aristotle's de- 

 finition of them (at De gen. et corr. 329 b 30) is this : 



** vypov is that which is not limited by any hmit of 

 its own but can be readily limited, ^i^pov is that 

 which is readily limited by a limit of its o^\'n but can 

 with difficulty be limited " — i.e. of course by a limit 

 imposed from without. 



He discusses the various senses in which these 

 terms are used at 649 b 9 following. 



Ile/otTTw/za, " residue." 



This term I have translated throughout ** residue,*
