Plutarchus de Stoic. repugn. cp. 22 p. 1044f. Καὶ μὴν ἐν τῷ(?) τῶν Προτρεπτικῶν εἰπὼν ὅτι καὶ τὸ μητράσιν ἢ ἀδελφαῖς ἢ θυγατράσιν συγγενέσθαι καὶ τὸ φαγεῖν τι καὶ προελθεῖν ἀπὸ λεχοῦς ἢ θανάτου πρὸς ἱερὸν ἀλόγως διαβέβληται. καὶ πρὸς τὰ θηρία φησὶ δεῖν ἀποβλέπειν, καὶ τοῖς ὑπ’ ἐκείνων γινομένοις τεκμαίρεσθαι τὸ μηδὲν ἄτοπον μηδὲ παρὰ φύσιν εἶναι τῶν τοιούτων· εὐκαίρως γὰρ πρὸς ταῦτα γίνεσθαι τὰς τῶν ἄλλων ζῴων παραθέσεις, εἰς τὸ μήτε συγγινόμενα μήτε γεννῶντα μήτ’ ἐναποθνήσκοντα ἐν τοῖς ἱεροῖς μιαίνειν τὸ θεῖον.
