Βασιλείου. Οὐ κατὰ τὸν ἔξω ἄνθρωπον, ἀλλ’ ἵνα τὸν νοῦν ἡμῶν ἡ τοῦ Θεοῦ μνήμη περισκεπάζῃ. οἶμαι δὲ τὸ πνευματικὸν ἱμάτιον ἐξυφαίνεσθαι, ὅταν τῷ διδακτικῷ λόγῳ ἡ ἀκόλουθος ἐπιπλέκηται πρᾶξις. ὥσπερ γὰρ τῷ στήμονι τῆς κρόκης ἐπιπλεκομένης, τὸ σωματικὸν ἱμάτιον ἐξυφαίνεται· οὕτως τοῦ λόγου προυφεστῶτος, εἰ ἀκολούθως αἱ πράξεις ἐπάγονται, σεμνοτάτη τίς ἃν γένοιτο περιβολὴ τῆς ψυχῆς· λόγῳ καὶ ἔργῳ τὸν κατ’ ἀρετὴν βίον συμπεπληρωμένον ἐχούσης.
