γενομένου δέ, φησί, τοῦ ἀνθρώπου διὰ τὸ αὐτῶν ἀδρανὲς μὴ δύνασθαι αὐτὸν τελεσφορῆσαι, κεῖσθαι δὲ καὶ σκαρίζειν χαμαὶ κείμενον δίκην σκώληκος ἕρποντος, μὴ δύνασθαι δὲ μήτε ἀνορθοῦσθαι μήτε τι ἕτερον πράττειν, ἕως ἡ ἄνω δύναμις παρακύψασα καὶ σπλαγχνισθεῖσα διὰ τὴν ἰδίαν αὐτῆς εἰκόνα τε καὶ ἰδέαν κατ᾿ οἶκτον ἀπέστειλε σπινθῆρα τῆς αὐτῆς δυνάμεως καὶ δι᾿ αὐτοῦ ἀνώρθωσε τὸν ἄνθρωπον καὶ οὕτως ἐζωογόνησε, δῆθεν τὸν σπινθῆρα ψυχὴν τὴν ἀνθρωπείαν φάσκων.
