καὶ μὴν οὐδὲ δυνατὸν αὐ- τοῖς εἰπεῖν ὡς τοῖς πονηροῖς δαίμοσιν · αὐτοῖς γὰρ μάλιστα τοῖς μεγίστοις θεοῖς ἡ ἱστορία τὰς ἀν- θρωποθυσίας ἐδήλωσεν ἐπιτελεῖσθαι. θύεσθαι γὰρ ἔφησε τῇ Ἥρᾳ καὶ τῇ Ἀθηνᾷ Κρόνῳ τε καὶ Ἄρει καὶ Διονύσω , καὶ αὐτῶ τῷ ἐπὶ πάντων Διὶ καὶ τῷ Φοίβῳ, τῷ δὴ σεμνοτάτῳ πάντων καὶ σοφωτάτῳ Ἀπόλλωνι· τούτους δὲ καὶ οὐκ ἄλλους τοὺς μεγί- στους θεοὺς ἀγαθοὺς καὶ σωτῆρας ἀναγορεύουσιν.
