Ἄρτι μοι τὴν ἅλω διακαθήραντι καὶ τὸ πτύον ἀποτιθεμένῳ ὁ δεσπότης ἐπέστη καὶ ἰδὼν ἐπῄνει τὴν φιλεργίαν. ἐφάνη δέ μοί ποθεν ὁ Κωρυκαῖος δαίμων, Στρόμβιχος ὁ παμπόνηρος. ἰδὼν γάρ με ἐφεπόμενον τῶ δεσπότη, κειμένην τὴν σισύραν ἣν ἀποθέμενος εἰργαζόμην ὑπὸ μάλης ᾤχετο φέρων, ὡς ὁμοῦ ζημία〈ν〉 καὶ τὸν ἀπὸ τῶν ὁμοδούλων προσοφλῆσαι γέλωτα.
