Καὶ πατὴρ τοῦ πολέμου τούτου φθόνος ἦν ἄλογος καὶ βασκανία ἄδικος· καὶ τῷ θυμῷ ζέοντες, φόνου καθ' ἑκάστην ἔπνεον τὴν ἡμέραν, τοῦ φθόνου τὴν κάμινον ταύτην ἀνάπτοντος καὶ τὴν πυρὰν ἐγείροντος. Καὶ ἐπειδὴ τέως αὐτὸν οὐδὲν ἐργάσασθαι ἠδύναντο χαλεπόν, ἔνδον στρεφόμενον καὶ μετὰ τῶν γονέων διατρίβοντα, διαβάλλουσιν αὐτοῦ τὴν ὑπόληψιν καὶ αἰσχρὰν κατασκευάζουσιν αὐτῷ δόξαν καὶ ψόγον καταφέρουσι πονηρόν, τοῦ πατρὸς τὸ φίλτρον ταύτῃ καταλῦσαι βουλόμενοι καὶ πρὸς ἐπιβουλὴν εὐχείρωτον λαβεῖν.
