脏腑各司其职,末后两样是催眠与唤醒;换了职分人就渐坏,同司一职人就立死。

肺吸各样水液,肝发怒气,胆囊往肝里注一滴苦汁,怒气就平了,脾发笑,膍胃磨碎食物,胃带来睡意,鼻子叫人醒。
and the lungs draw all kinds of liquids, the liver becomes angry, the gall bladder injects a drop of gall into the liver and allays anger, the spleen laughs, the maw grinds the food, and the stomach brings sleep, and the nose awakens.

这两样若换了职分——本该使人睡的倒叫人醒,本该叫人醒的倒使人睡——人就渐渐衰坏。
If they reversed roles such that the organ which brings on sleep were to awaken, or the organ which awakens were to bring on sleep, the individual would gradually deteriorate.

又教过:两样若都使人睡,或都叫人醒,人立时就死。
It was taught: If both bring on sleep or both awaken, the person immediately dies.
