εἰ δὴ οὖν βουλομένοις ποτέ τινα ἕτερα παρὰ τὴν ἡμετέραν γνώμην συμβαίνει, ὑπομνηστέον αὐτοὺς ὡς ἄρα τοῦτ’ ἦν ἐκεῖνο τὸ διττὸν καὶ ἑτερογενὲς τῆς ἐν ἡμῖν συμπλοκῆς, λέγω δὴ ψυχῆς καὶ σώματος, παρ’ ὃ καὶ ψυχῆς οὐσία, τὴν φύσιν οὖσα νοερὰ καὶ λογικὴ , ἐν νηπιάζοντι κατὰ φύσιν σώματι παρὰ φὐσιν αὐτὴ χώραν ἀλόγου μετείληφε· καὶ νοῦς ὁ φρονήσεως οἰκεῖος ἀφραίνει πολλάκις κατά τι συμβεβηκὸς, παρατραπεὶς ἐν ὑπερβαλλούσαις φέρε σώματος ἀρρωστίαις.
