Οἶμαι δὲ καὶ τὸ ὑπὸ τῶν Ϲτωικῶν καλεῖϲθαι αὐτὰ ἀοριϲτώδη ὑπό τι μαχόμενον. ἀόριϲτον μὲν γὰρ τὸ ἄνθρωποϲ παρεγένετο. πᾶϲα γὰρ ἀναφορὰ γνώϲεωϲ προῦφεϲτώϲηϲ ἐϲτὶ ϲημαντική, τὸ δὲ γινωϲκόμενον ὥριϲται. πῶϲ οὑν ἀοριϲτώδη τὰ ἄρθρα, ἀναφορὰν δηλοῦντα; Ἀλλ’ εἰ καὶ φήϲει τιϲ ἀόριϲταεἰναιἐν τῷ ὁ περιπατ τὧν κινεῖταικαὶἐν τοῖϲὁμοίοιϲ, φήϲομεν ὅτι μᾶλλον ὡριϲμένα εἰρήϲεται ἀπὸ τῶν ἀναφοράν ϲημαινόντῶν. Ἴϲωϲ οὑν πρὸϲ τὴν ϲύγκριϲιν τῶν ἀντωνυμιῶν , πάντοτε ὁριζομένων, ταῦτα ἐκάλεϲαν ἀοριϲτώδη.
