Clemens Al. Strom. VII 17 p. 893 Pott. τριττὴ δὲ θεραπεία οἰήσεως, καθάπερ καὶ παντὸς πάθους· μάθησίς τε τοῦ αἰτίου καὶ τοῦ πῶς ἂν ἐξαιρεθείη τοῦτο· καὶ τρίτον ἡ ἄσκησις τῆς ψυχῆς καὶ ὁ ἐθισμὸς πρὸς ⟨τὸ⟩ τοῖς κριθεῖσιν ὀρθῶς ἔχειν ἀκολουθεῖν δύνασθαι. Cf. paullo post: ἐπὰν δὲ παραβῇ τις τὸν λόγον － － εἰ μὲν διὰ τὸ αἰφνίδιον προσπεσεῖν τινα φαντασίαν ἠσθένησεν, προχείρους τὰς φαντασίας τὰς λογικὰς ποιητέον· εἰ δὲ τῷ ἔθει τῷ προκατεσχηκότι ἡττηθεὶς γέγονεν, ᾗ φησιν ἡ γραφή, χυδαῖος, ἀποπαυστέον τὸ ἔθος εἰς τὸ παντελὲς καὶ πρὸς τὸ ἀντιλέγειν αὐτῷ τὴν ψυχὴν γυμναστέον· εἰ δὲ καὶ μαχόμενα δόγματα ἐφέλκεσθαί τινας δοκεῖ, ὑπεξαιρετέον ταῦτα etc.
