*( Of Things which are eaten and which first are killed. )*
Those who nourish them will be killed by them and afflicted by merciless deaths.

*(Of Water, which flows turbid and mixed with Soil and Dust; and of Mist, which is mixed with the Air; and of Fire which is mixed with its own, and each with each.)*

*(The World may be divided into two Hemispheres at any Point.)*
All men will suddenly be transferred into opposite hemispheres.
*(The division of the East from the West may be made at any point.)*
