τοῦτο δὲ ἐνθάδε οὐκ ἔστιν οὐδαμοῦ, ὅπου κατηνέχθης· καὶ διὰ τοῦτο αἱ νῆες ἀπόλλυνται. ταῦτα οὖν ἑώρων καὶ πολὺν ὄχλον ἐν ταὐτῷ συνειργμένον καὶ θόρυβον ἀμήχανον καὶ κραυγήν· ὥστε ἐμοὶ ἐδόκουν πάντεσμάχεσθαι ἀλλήλοις. ἄγει οὖν με πρός τινας ἄρχοντας, καὶ εἶπε γελῶν, Οὗτός ἐστιν ἐφʼ ὅν με ἐπέμψατε. ἔχει δὲ οὐδὲν εἰ μή γε τὴν κόμην καὶ σκηνὴν μάλα ἰσχυρᾶν ξύλων.
