Τὸν δὲ εὐφυῆ τοιοῦτον εἶναι χρή· μεγέθους εὖ ἥκοντα, λευκὸν ὑπέρυθρον ξανθόν, οὐ πάνυ οὖλον οὐδὲ εὐθύτριχα, τὸ πᾶν σῶμα ὄρθιον ὄντα, μέλη με- γάλα, τὰ ἄρθρα ἀπολελυμένα ἀλλήλων, σὰρξ μετρία ἁπαλή, σκέλη καὶ μηροὶ εὐτραφεῖς, σφυρὰ καρτερά, ποδῶν καὶ χειρῶν ἄρθρα γενναῖα, δάκτυλοι ἀπαλοὶ εὐμήκεις διεστῶτες ἀλλήλων, πρόσωπα οὐ πάνυ σαρ- κώδη οὐδὲ μὴν λεπτά, ὀφθαλμοὶ ὑγροὶ εὐλαμπεῖς χαροποί, τὸ ἐν αὐτοῖς ἦθος γεγηθός.
