Translation

The art of calculating; so Isocrates in Bousiris [sc. uses the word].1
"Both reasoning and the body suffer the same things as each other;" for reasoning becomes weaker as the body suffers.2

Greek original · Adler’s text

Λογισμός· ἡ λογιστικὴ τέχνη· ὡς Ἰσοκράτης Βουσίριδι. ὅτι συμπάσχουσιν ἀλλήλοις ὅ τε λογισμὸς καὶ τὸ σῶμα· ὁ γὰρ λογισμὸς ἀτονώτερος γίνεται τοῦ σώματος πάσχοντος.
