then after this creation god created in him four temperaments which are the foundation of his body and his essence. his body cannot exist without them and none of the temperaments of any of them can exist without its peers. they are blood phlegm red bile and black bile.
ثم خلق الله فيه من بعد هذا الخلق أربعة أمزجة، هي قوام جسده وملاكه لا يقوم جسده إلا بها، ولا يقوم مزاج أحد منها إلا بأقرانه. وهي الدم، والبلغم، والمرة الحمراء، والمرة السوداء.
