καὶ μὲν δὴ καὶ σταφυλαὶ γλυκεῖαι τῆς αὐτῆς εἰσι φύσεως, καὶ μᾶλλον ἔτι τούτων αὐτῶν φοινίκων βάλανοι· αἶ μὲν γάρ κατὰ τὴν Ἀλεξάνδρειαν καὶ Κύπρον καὶ Φοινίκην καὶ Λυκίαν καὶ Κιλικίαν οὐδὲ τὴν ἀπόθεσιν ὑπομένουσιν, ἀλλ’ ὡς ὀπῶραι μᾶλλον ἐσθίονται διὰ περιττὴν ὑγρότητα σηπόμεναι ῥᾳδίως· τῶν δ’ ἄλλων τῶν εἰς ἀπόθεσιν ἐσκευασμένων ἐλάττων μὲν ἡ βλάβη, παχὺς δ’ οὐδὲν ἧττον καὶ τούτων ὁ χυμός, ὥστε φυλάττεσθαι χρὴ τὴν ἐδωδὴν αὐτῶν ἐν τοῖς εἰρημένοις πάθεσιν.
