8 Ὁ δὲ βασιλεὺς ἀσμένως δεξάμενος τὴν ἀπόκρισιο τοῦ θεολόγου ἔφη πρὸς αὐτόν· Ἀγγελία μοι ἦλθε περὶ σοῦ ὅτιπερ ἐξέστησας ὅλον τὸ ἔθνος καὶ μάλιστα τῶν Ἐφεσίων ἐν φαντασίαις τινὲς καὶ μαγικαῖς χρώμενος μαγγανείαις· ἀλλὰ καὶ ἕτερον θεὸν κηρύττεις καὶ προσκυνεῖς παρὰ τοὺς ὄντας θεοὺς τοὺς παῤ ὑμῶν σεβομένους· πλὴν πειράσομαι καὶ γνώσομαι εἰ βοηθήσει ὁ θεὸς ὃν κηρύττεις.
