To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Why may they not be merely the results of neces- sity, just as the rain falls of necessity, and not that the corn may grow ? Fur the uprising of the watery vapour, its cooling when thus raised, and its fall as rain when cooled, are all matters of necessity ; and though the rain makes the corn grow, it no more occurs in order to cause that growth than a shower which spoils the farmer's crop at hai-vest-time occurs in order to do that mischief. Now, why may not this which is true of the rain be t...rue also of the parts of the body ? Why, for instance, may not the teeth grow to be such as they are merely of necessity, and the fitness of the front ones with their sharp edge for the comminution of the food, and of the hind ones with their flat surface for its mastication, be no more than an accidental coincidence, and not the cause that has deter- mined their development ? And so with all other parts wherever there is an appearance of final causes. In short, whenever accident caused all the parts of the body to be developed spontaneously in this suitable manner, to be developed, that is, just as they would have been had design presided over the formation the resulting wholes survived ; but when this was not the case they perished, and still do perish, as Empedocles insists, when speaking of certain monstrosities.
