Εἰ δὲ μὴ μακρὸν σφόδρα καὶ ὑπὲρ τὸ μέτρον ἐποιούμην τὸν λόγον, πολλὰ ἂν καὶ περὶ θανάτου ἐφιλοσόφησα καὶ ἐν τούτῳ μάλιστα ἐδείκνυον τὴν σοφίαν τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ τὴν πρόνοιαν καὶ πολλὰ περὶ φθορᾶς, περὶ ἰχῶρος, περὶ σκωλήκων καὶ περὶ τέφρας εἶπον ἄν, ἅπερ μάλιστα θρηνοῦσιν οἱ πολλοὶ καὶ ἀποδύρονται, ὅτι εἰς τέφραν, ὅτι εἰς κόνιν, ὅτι εἰς σκώληκας διαλυθήσεται ἡμῶν τὰ σώματα, κἀντεῦθεν ἐδείξαμεν τὴν ἄφατον αὐτοῦ πρόνοιαν καὶ κηδεμονίαν.
