Νύμφαι, σκώληκες οἱ ἐν τοῖς τῶν μελισσῶν κυττάροις, ὅταν ἤδη πτεροποιεῖν ἄρξωνται· οἱ δ ̓ ἁπλῶς τοὺς πτερωτοὺς σκώληκας, Σάμιοι. Καὶ τὸ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν γυναικείων αἰδοίων νύμφην καλοῦσι. Καὶ τῶν ῥόδων αἱ κάλυκες αἱ μεμυκυῖαι, νύμφαι. Καὶ αἱ Μοῦσαι δὲ ὑπὸ Λυδῶν νύμφαι. Ὅτι δὲ πάντων τῶν καρπῶν αἱ ἐκφύσεις οὕτω, δῆλον. Περὶ δὲ τῶν θεῶν Διονυσίῳ πᾶσα ἱστορία συνῆκται ἐν τριάκοντα καὶ τρισὶ βιβλίοις.
