νῦν, Ζαφόν, σὲ δεῖ μανθάνειν τὰ μέρη τοῦ σώματος.
πρῶτον μὲν ἄνω ἐστὶν ἡ κεφαλή· ἐπὶ δὲ τῆς κεφαλῆς αἱ τρίχες φύονται καὶ κόμη ὀνομάζονται.
κόμην μέλαιναν ἔχω καὶ σὺ μέλαιναν ἔχεις. ἄλλ χρώματα ξανθὸν καὶ πυρρὸν καὶ καστανοῦν εἰσί.
ἔχω δύο ὦτα. ἔχεις ὦτα δύο καὶ σύ. πάντες ἄνθρωποι δύο ὦτα ἔχουσι καὶ ἀκούομεν τοῖς ὠσίν.πόσους ἔχεις ὀφθαλμούς;
ἀριθμῶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς· ὀφθαλμοὺς δύο ἔχω καὶ δὴ καὶ ἕκαστός τις. ὁρῶμεν δὲ τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς. καὶ ὑπὲρ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν ἐστι τὸ μέτωπον, ὑπὸ τοῖς ὀφθαμοῖς καὶ ἡ ῥὶς καὶ ἑκατέρωθεν παρειαί, αἷς ἐρυθριῶμεν. ὑπὸ τῇ ῥινὶ καὶ ταῖς παρειαῖς τὸ στόμα ὕπεστι· ἐν δὲ τῷ στόματι ἥ τε γλῶττα καὶ οἱ ὀδόντες· τὸ δὲ γένειον κάτω ἐστὶ τοῦ στόματος, καὶ ἡ ἐπὶ τοῦ γενείου φυομένη θρὶξ καλεῖται πώγων. πάντα τὰ ἔμπροσθεν τῆς κεφαλῆς καλεῖται πρόσωπον.
