33. Καὶ ταῦτα μὲν καὶ τὰ τοιαῦτα * ὁ προειρημένος ἀνὴρ πρεσβύτης Εἰρηναῖος, ὁ κατὰ πάντα ἐκ πνεύματος ἁγίου κεκοσμήμένος, ὡς γενναῖος ἀθλητὴς ὑπὸ <τοῦ> κυρίου προβεβλημένος καὶ τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις χαρίσμασι τοῖς κατὰ τὴν ἀληθινὴν Πίστιν καὶ γνῶσιν, καταπαλαίσας τε καὶ καταγωνισάμενος τὴν πᾶσαν αὐτῶν ληρώδη ὑπόθεσιν, διεξῆλθεν κατὰ λεπτὸν τὰ ὑπ’ αὐτῶν κενοφωνούμενα. ἀκρότατα δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ ἑξῆς δευτέρῳ αὐτοῦ λόγῳ καὶ τοῖς ἄλλοις διήλεγξεν περιττοτέρως, βουλόμενός πως τὸν χαμαὶ ῥιφέντα καὶ εἰς ἡτταν τραπέντα σῦραι καὶ ἐνώπιον πάντων θριαμβεῦσαί τε καὶ φωρᾶσαι τὴν ἐν αὐτῷ τῷ ῥιφέντι ἀναίσχυντόν τε καὶ ἀσθενῆ πρόκλησιν ματαιοφροσύνης.
