Ἀλλ' ὅμως οὐδὲ ἐντεῦθεν ἔπαθέ τι χαλεπὸν ὁ δίκαιος ἐκεῖνος· ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐπιθυμίας τυραννίδα καὶ νέας ἡλικίας θορύβους καὶ ἀκολάστου γυναικὸς ἐπιβουλὴν καὶ δεσποίνης ἐφόδους καὶ νεότητος ταραχὰς καὶ πάντα ὅσα εἰκὸς ἐκ τῆς ἁφῆς ἐκείνης γενέσθαι καὶ τῆς ὄψεως καὶ τῆς μανίας, μετὰ πολλῆς τῆς εὐκολίας ὑπερβάς, ὥσπερ τις ἀετὸς ὑψηλὸν τείνας τὸ πτερὸν καὶ αὐτὰ ἀποδυσάμενος τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ καταλιπὼν ταῖς ἀκολάστοις χερσίν, ἐξῆλθεν ἱματίων μὲν γυμνός, λαμπρὰν δὲ τῆς σωφροσύνης ἕχων τὴν περιβολὴν καὶ τῆς ἁλουργίδος αὐτῆς περιφανεστέραν.
