Καὶ ταῦτα μὲν ὁ Ξενοφάνης. ἔσκωψε δʼ αὐτὸν Κρατῖνος μὲν ἐν Πυθαγοριζούσῃ· ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐν Ταραντίνοις φησὶν οὕτως· ἔθος ἐστὶν αὐτοῖς, ἄν τινʼ ἰδιώτην ποθὲν λάβωσιν εἰσελθόντα, διαπειρώμενον τῆς τῶν λόγων ῥώμης ταράττειν καὶ κυκᾶν τοῖς ἀντιθέτοις, τοῖς πέρασι, τοῖς παρισώμασιν, τοῖς ἀποπλάνοις, τοῖς μεγέθεσιν νουβυστικῶς. Μνησίμαχος δʼ Ἀλκμαίωνι· ὡς Πυθαγοριστὶ θύομεν τῷ Λοξίᾳ, ἔμψυχον οὐδὲν ἐσθίοντες παντελῶς.
