[8] Ὁ δὲ ἔτι μᾶλλον ὀργισθεὶς καὶ πονηρὸν εἶναι νομίσας τελέως κελεύει πυρὰν ποιήσαντας, ἐπιθέντας καταφλέξαι τὸν Ἁβροκόμην. Καὶ ἦν μὲν ἅπαντα παρεσκευασμένα, καὶ ἡ πυρὰ παρὰ τὰς ἐκβολὰς τοῦ Νείλου, καὶ ἐπετέθειτο μὲν ὁ Ἁβροκόμης καὶ τὸ πῦρ ὑπετέθειτο, ἄρτι δὲ τῆς φλογὸς μελλούσης ἅπτεσθαι τοῦ σώματος εὔχετο πάλιν ὀλίγα, ὅσα ἐδύνατο, σῶσαι αὐτὸν ἐκ τῶν καθεστώτων κακῶν.
