νεοττιὰν δὲ ἢ καλιὰν οὐκ ἐν ἑνὶ τόπῳ κατεστήσατο, ἀλλὰ πλάνητα τὴν πτῆσιν κατὰ τοὺς Σκύθας ἐπανῃρημένη, ὅπου ἂν τύχῃ ὑπὸ τῆς νυκτὸς καταληφθεῖσα, ἐκεῖ καὶ ἑστίαν καὶ εὐνὴν ποιεῖται. ὑπὸ σκότῳ μέντοι, ὡς ἔφην, οὐδὲν ἐργάζεται οὐδὲ ἀξιοῖ λανθάνειν τι πράττουσα, οὐδὲ ἡγεῖταί τι αἰσχρὸν ποιεῖν, ὃ ἐν φωτὶ δρώμενον αἰσχυνεῖ αὐτήν.
