ἐκφέροιμι τὰ σεμνότατα τῶν ἔργων, ἴσως ἂν
ἀποφύγοιμι τὴν ἁμαρτάδα, καὶ οὐκ ἔσομαι ταῖς
διαβολαῖς ἔνοχος: ὥστε ἤδη θαρροῦντα χρὴ λέγειν.
Καί μοι μή τις δυσχεράνῃ πειρωμένῳ πράξεων
ἅπτεσθαι μειζόνων, εἰ καὶ τὸ τοῦ λόγου συνεκθέοι
μῆκος, καὶ ταῦτα θέλοντος ἐπέχειν καὶ
βιαζομένου, ὅπως μὴ τῷ μεγέθει τῶν ἔργων ἡ
τῶν λόγων ἀσθένεια περιχεομένη διαλυμήνηται:
καθάπερ δὴ τὸν χρυσόν φασι τοῦ Θεσπιᾶσιν
