‘ τῆς πέτρας: τοὺς δὲ δαίμονας ἐκείνους περιέπειν καὶ θεραπεύειν τὸν Κρόνον, ἑταίρους αὐτῷ
γενομένους, ὅτε δὴ θεῶν καὶ ἀνθρώπων ἐβασίλευε καὶ πολλὰ μὲν ἀφ᾽ ἑαυτῶν μαντικοὺς ὄντας προλέγειν,
τὰ δὲ μέγιστα καὶ περὶ τῶν μεγίστων ὡς ὀνείρατα τοῦ Κρόνου κατιόντας ἐξαγγέλλειν ὅσα γὰρ
ὁ Ζεύς προδιανοεῖται, ταῦτ᾽ ὀνειροπολεῖν τὸν Κρόνον:
εἶναι δ᾽ ἀνάστασιν τὰ τιτανικὰ πάθη καὶ κινήματα τῆς ψυχῆς ἐν αὐτῷ παντάπασιν ὁ ὕπνος καὶ γένηται τὸ βασιλικὸν καὶ θεῖον αὐτὸ καθ᾽ ἑαυτὸ
’
