Πολλάκις δὲ καὶ δύο φράζεται δι’ ἑνὸς πρὸς τὸ χάριεν, οἷον ἐπὶ τῆς Ἀμαζόνος καθευδούσης ἔφη τις, ὅτι τὸ τόξον ἐντεταμένον ἔκειτο, καὶ ἡ φαρέτρα πλήρης, τὸ γέρρον ἐπὶ τῇ κεφαλῇ· τοὺς δὲ ζωστῆρας οὐ λύονται. ἐν γὰρ τούτῳ καὶ ὁ νόμος εἴρηται ὁ περὶ τοῦ ζωστῆρος, καὶ ὅτι οὐκ ἔλυσε τὸν ζωστῆρα, τὰ δύο πράγματα διὰ μιᾶς ἑρμηνείας. καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς συντομίας ταύτης γλαφυρόν τί ἐστι.
