Διαφέρουσι δὲ οὗτοι ἀλλήλων, ὅτι τῷ μὲν Λυσίᾳ μετὰ τούτων καὶ τὰ τῆς ἐπιμελείας μετρίως ὕπεστι καὶ τὸ τοῦ κόσμου σφόδρα ἀνεμφάτως, γοργότητος δὲ ὡς ἐλάχιστον, περιβολῆς δὲ τῆς μὲν κατʼ ἔννοιαν μετρίως πως, τῆς δὲ κατὰ μέθοδον ἢ λέξιν ἢ τὰ ἑπόμενα ταύτῃ σχεδὸν οὐδʼ ὅλως. καὶ τῶν ἄλλων δέ, ἅ τὸν ἀξιωματικὸν ποιεῖ λόγον, ὡς ἐλάχιστον αὐτῷ μέτεστι, πλεῖστόν γε μὴν δεινότητος ἔχει τῆς κατὰ μέθοδον.
