καὶ ὃς ἀνηρώτα με, Ἀλλʼ ἦ, ὦ ξεῖνε, τῇδέ που φεύγοντα ἔλαφον κατενόησας; κἀγὼ πρὸς αὐτόν, Ἐκεῖνος, ἔφην, ἐν τῷ κλύδωνι ἤδη· καὶ ἀγαγὼν ἔδειξα. ἑλκύσας οὖν αὐτὸν ἐκ τῆς θαλάττης τό τε δέρμα ἐξέδειρε μαχαίρᾳ, κἀμοῦ ξυλλαμβάνοντος ὅσον οἷός τε ἦν, καὶ τῶν σκελῶν ἀποτεμὼν τὰ ὀπίσθια ἐκόμιζεν ἅμα τῷ δέρματι.παρεκάλει δὲ κἀμὲ συνακολουθεῖν καὶ συνεστιᾶσθαι τῶν κρεῶν· εἶναι δὲ οὐ μακρὰν τὴν οἴκησιν.
