Κωνσταντῖνον ὁ Ἑρμῆς ἤρετο, Σὺ δὲ τί καλὸν
ἐνόμισας; Πολλά, εἶπε, κτησάμενον πολλὰ χαρίσασθαι,
ταῖς τ̓ ἐπιθυμίαις ταῖς ἑαυτοῦ καὶ
ταῖς τῶν φίλων ὑπουργοῦντα. ἀνακαγχάσας
οὖν ὁ Σειληνὸς μέγα, Ἀλλ̓ ἦ τραπεζίτης εἶναι,
ἔφη, θέλων ἐλελήθεις σεαυτὸν ὀψοποιοῦ καὶ
κομμωτρίας βίον ζῶν; ᾐνίττετο δ̓ αὐτὰ πάλαι
μὲν ἥ τε κόμη τό τε εἶδος, ἀτὰρ νῦν καὶ ἡ
γνώμη σοῦ κατηγορεῖ. τούτου μὲν οὖν ὁ Σειληνὸς
πικρότερόν πως καθήψατο.
