εἰ σαφῆ ταῦτα καὶ μὴ ἀμφίλογα, Ἰνδῶν λόγοι πειθέτωσαν· ἃ δὲ νῦν ἐρῶ, τῆς ἐκεῖθεν φήμης διακομιζούσης, ταῦτά ἐστιν. ὁμώνυμον τῷ φυτῷ κιννάμωμον ὄρνιν ἔγωγε τοῦ παιδὸς τοῦ Νικομάχου λέγοντος ἤκουσα. καὶ τὸν μὲν ὄρνιν κομίζειν τὸ φερώνυμον τοῦτο δὴ φυτὸν ἐς Ἰνδούς, εἰδέναι δὲ ἄρα τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ὅπου τε καὶ ὅπως φύεται οὐδὲ ἕν.
