Πρῶτον μὲν γὰρ πόλεμος αὐτῷ χαλεπὸς ἐντεῦθεν κατὰ τὴν πατρῴαν οἰκίαν ἀνερριπίζετο καὶ οἱ τὰς αὐτὰς αὐτῷ λύσαντες ὠδῖνας, διατεμόντες τῆς συγγενείας τοὺς νόμους καὶ διαρρήξαντες τῆς ἀδελφικῆς φιλίας αὐτῆς τὰ δεσμὰ καὶ αὐτοὺς τῆς φύσεως διασαλεύσαντες τοὺς θεσμοὺς, ἐχθροὶ καὶ πολέμιοι καὶ λύκων ἀγριώτεροι περὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἀπὸ τῶν ὀνειράτων ἐκείνων ἐγίνοντο· καὶ ὥσπερ θῆρες ἄγριοι καὶ ἀνήμεροί τινες ἀρνίον ἐν μέσῳ λαβόντες, οὕτω καθ' ἑκάστην ἐπεβούλευον αὐτῷ τὴν ἡμέραν.
