===The Four Humours===
The four humors go back to ancient Egyptian and Babylonian medicine, but Hippocrates codified them for the West around 400 B.C. He described them as Choler or Xanthecholia (yellow bile), Melancholia (black bile), white Phlegm (not just modern phlegm, but also saliva, lymph, and the liquids of lungs and brain), and red Hema (blood). Thus, as the various humors predominate in the human system, people turn Choleric, Melancholy, Phlegmatic, and Sanguine. Modern alchemists point out that a blood sedimentation test demonstrates the existence of all four humors in the blood: black platelets and clots at the bottom, red blood cells above that, white cells governing them, and finally clear plasma coloured yellowish with bilirubin. Licks more thirsty than scholarly just break the four humors down as â€œangry, sad, lazy, and horny.â€
