Know that the ninth day is a strong day, ranking first among crisis days, followed by the fifth and third; The ninth day is not clearly inferior to the fourth, which is the main one. The thirteenth day, due to its weakness, does not seem to belong to the number of days on which there is a crisis, and as for the sixth, it is the day on which
there is a crisis, but a bad one, and even if a crisis does not come, it is difficult, hidden, and not free from danger; In terms of the rarity of the crisis occurring on this day, in terms of its bad quality and difficulty, the sixth day is the opposite of the seventh. It foretells the fourth day, but it foretells something bad, and the prediction of the fourth is rarely carried out successfully on this day. On the sixth day, frightening signs such as nausea and fainting appear, especially if there has been a bowel movement - then vomiting and fainting occur. On the sixth day, loss of strength, shaking, trembling and disappearance of the pulse are also observed, and if perspiration appears on this day, it appears unevenly.
Sometimes the crisis by evacuation is incomplete on this day, and its completion is expressed in a bad rash or jaundice. The urine is then bad, with a bad sediment, and this is the case if the crisis is favorable, what can I say, what kind of urine is it when it is unfavorable. A successful crisis then occurs during the phenomena of return, and Galen says that the seventh day is like a just king, and the sixth day is like a criminal rapist. The eighth day is close to the sixth in this regard.
