Ἔδοξέ τις τὸ αἰδοῖον αὐτοῦ ἄχρις ἄκρας τῆς κορώνης τετριχῶσθαι καὶ λάσιον εἶναι πυκνῶν πάνυ τριχῶν αἰφνίδιον φυεισῶν. ἀποπεφασμένος κίναιδος ἐγένετο πάσῃ μὲν ἀκολάστῳ χαρισάμενος ἡδονῇ , μόνῳ δὲ τῷ αἰδοίῳ κατὰ νόμον ἀνδρῶν μὴ χρώμενος. τοιγοροῦν οὕτως ἀργὸν ἦν αὐτῷ τὸ μέρος ἐκεῖνο, ὡς διὰ τὸ μὴ τρίβεσθαι πρὸς ἕτερον σῶμα καὶ τρίχας ἐκφῦσαι. Ἔδοξέ τις λέγειν αὐτῷ τινα ‘θῦσον τῷ Ἀσκληπιῷ.ʼ τῇ ὑστεραίᾳ μεγάλῃ συμφορᾷ ἐχρήσατο· κατηνέχθη γὰρ ἀπὸ ὀχήματος περιστρεφθέντος καὶ συνετρίβη τὴν χεῖρα τὴν δεξιάν, καὶ τοῦτο ἦν ἄρα, ὅπερ ἐσήμαινεν αὐτῷ τὸ ὄναρ, δεῖν φυλάττεσθαι καὶ θύειν ἀποτρόπαια τῷ θεῷ.
