‘ἔστι γάρ’ ὡς ὑπολαμβάνουσι Δελφοὶ καὶ 1 τότε 2 προηγορῶν ἔλεγε
Νίκανδρος ὁ ἱερεὺς ‘σχῆμα 3 καὶ μορφὴ τῆς πρὸς τὸν, θεὸν ἐντεύξεως,
καὶ τάξιν ἡγεμονικὴν ἐν τοῖς ἐρωτήμασιν ἔχει τῶν χρωμένων ἑκάστοτε
καὶ διαπυνθανομένων , εἰ νικήσουσιν, εἰ
γαμήσουσιν, εἰ συμφέρει πλεῖν, εἰ γεωργεῖν, εἰ ἀποδημεῖν. τοῖς δὲ
διαλεκτικοῖς χαίρειν ἔλεγε σοφὸς ὁ θεός, οὐδὲν οἰομένοις ἐκ τοῦ
‘εἰ’ μορίου καὶ [p. 6] τοῦ μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἀξιώματος
πρᾶγμα γίγνεσθαι, πάσας τὰς ἐρωτήσεις ὑποτεταγμένας τούτῳ καὶ νοῶν ὡς
πράγματα καὶ προσιέμενος. ἐπεὶ δ᾽ ἴδιον τὸ ἐρωτᾶν ’
