《Tetrabiblos》The Hurts, Injuries, And Diseases Of The BodyClaudius Ptolemy（Ashmand 英譯 1822）
[198] Της ιερας νοσου; literally, “the holy disease,” which authors have explained to mean epilepsy. Perhaps the disease was anciently called holy, because the patient, when possessed by the fit, seemed to be under the influence of some supernatural agency.
