يقوى، والجاذب يضعف، وكذٰلك الماسك إلى أن يموت الإنسان.

ولو لا هٰذا التدبير بهذه الآلات لهذه النشأة ما سمعت أذن، ولا نظر بصر، ولا كان حكم لشيء من هذه القوى الحسية والمعنوية.

(الشهوة والإرادة في تناول الغذاء)

وأما النفس الشهوانية فسلطانها في هٰذا الهيكل طلب ما يحسن عندها، ولا تعرف هل يضرها ذٰلك أو ينفعها، وهٰذا ليس إلا في نشأة الإنسان.

وأما سائر الحيوان فلا يتناول الغذاء إلا بالإرادة لا بالشهوة، ليدفع عن نفسه ألم الجوع والحاجة، فلا يقصد إلا لما له فيه المنفعة.

ويبقى حكم الشهوة في الحيوان في الاستكثار من الغذاء، فمنه يدخل عليه الخلل والإنسان يدخل عليه الخلل كذٰلك من الاستكثار مما ينفع القليل منه، ومن تناوله ما لا ينفعه أصلا مما تطلبه الشهوة، ويتضرر به المزاج.

فهٰذا الفارق بين الإنسان والحيوان في تناول الغذاء، فالنفس الشهوانية للنفس النباتية كما قيل :

إذا امتحن الدنيا لبيب تكشفت له عن عدو في ثياب صديق.

grows strong and the attracting faculty weakens, as does the retaining faculty, until the human being dies.

Without this governance through these instruments for this constitution, no ear would hear, no eyesight would look, and none of these sensory and spiritual faculties would have any ruling.

(Appetite and Will in Taking Nourishment)

The appetitive soul's sovereignty within this bodily frame is seeking what it deems beautiful, without knowing whether that harms or benefits it. This occurs only within the human constitution.

Other animals take nourishment only through will, not appetite, to repel the pain of hunger and need from themselves. They intend only what benefits them.

The ruling of appetite within the animal remains in taking an abundance of nourishment. Through that disorder enters it. Disorder likewise enters the human being through taking an abundance of that of which a little is beneficial, and through taking what has no benefit at all among what appetite seeks and through which the temperament is harmed.

This is the distinction between the human being and the animal in taking nourishment. The appetitive soul is to the vegetative soul as has been said:

When an intelligent man tests the world, it reveals to him an enemy in a friend's clothes.

It has friendship with the vegetative soul because it assists it in nourishment and taking it. It is the enemy insofar as it introduces to it
