ἡ δὲ τούτου θέα οὐκ ἔστι στοχαάοντος, ἀλλ᾽ αὐτῇ ⟨τ⟩ῇ ὄψει ⟨ὁρᾶται⟩. λαμπρότατα ⟨γὰρ⟩ περιλάμπει πάντα τὸν κόσμον τὸν ὑπερκείμενον καὶ ὑποκείμενον· μέσος γὰρ ἵδρυται, στεφανηφορῶν τὸν κόσμον. ⟨⟨ἀφῆκεν οὖν φέρεσθαι ⟨αὐτὸν⟩ οὐ πόρρωθεν ἑαυτοῦ, ἀλλ᾽ εἰ χρὴ τὸ ἀληθὲς εἰπεῖν, σὺν ἑαυτῷ,⟩⟩ [καὶ] καθάπερ ἡνίοχος ἀγαθός, τὸ τοῦ κόσμου ἅρμα ἀσφαλισάμενος καὶ ἀναδήσας εἰς ἑαυτόν, μή πως ἀτάκτως φέροιτο· εἰσὶ δὲ αἱ ἡνίαι ⟨...⟩ [ζωὴ καὶ ψυχὴ καὶ πνεῦμα] [καὶ ἀθανασία καὶ γένεσις]. [[ἀφῆκεν οὖν φέρεσθαι οὐ πόρρωθεν ἑαυτοῦ, ἀλλ᾽ εἰ χρὴ τὸ ἀληθὲς εἰπεῖν, σὺν ἑαυτῷ.]]
