In eadem Africa familias quasdam effascinantium, Isigonus et Nymphodorus: quorum laudatione intereant probata (πρόβατα Harduin.), arescant arbores, emoriantur infantes. Esse ejusdem generis in Triballis et Illyriis adjicit Isigonus, qui visu quoque effascinent, interimantque quos diutius intueantur, iratis proecipue oculis: quod eorum malum facilius sentire puberes. Notabilius esse, quod pupillas binas in oculis singulis habeant. Καὶ μὴν καὶ Ἰσίγονος ὁ Κιττιεὺς (?) ἐν Ῥόδῳ τῇ νήσῳ τὸν τοῦ Διὸς ταῦρόν φησιν οὐκ ἀμοιρῆσαι λόγου τοῦ καθ ̓ ἡμᾶς. Πρόβατα δὲ χρυσόχροόν που φέρειν τὴν ἐρέαν, Ῥηγῖνος τὸν Ἰσίγονον (lib. Ἡσίγ.) εἰσφέρει γεγραφότα. Κρήνη ἐν Ποτνίαις περὶ Θήβας, ἐξ ἧς οἱ ἵπποι πίνοντες μαίνονται, ὡς ἱστορεῖ Ἰσίγονος ἐν δευτέρῳ Ἀπίστων. Κρήνη ἐν Παλικοῖς, ἥτις εἰς ὕψος ἀναρρίπτει τὸ ὕδωρ πηχέων ἓξ, ἔμφασιν ποιοῦσα μέλλειν κατακλύζειν τοὺς ὑποκειμένους τόπους, καθόλου δὲ οὐχ ὑπερεκχεῖται οὐδέν. Ἐπὶ ταύτης οἱ ἐπιχώριοι τοὺς ὑπὲρ τῶν μεγίστων ὅρκους ποιοῦνται, ὡς ἱστορεῖ Ἰσίγονος ἐν δευτέρῳ Ἀπίστων.
