σαλεῦον καὶ κραδαινόμενον; Ὥσπερ γάρ, οἶμαι, καὶ τῆς ἄλλης γῆς εἰ ἀφέλοι τὶς τῷ λόγῳ τὴν ἕδραν ἢ τὴν μονήν, συναφεῖλεν αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ εἶναι· καὶ τοῦ ἡλίου εἰ ἀφέλοι τὶς τὴν κίνησιν καὶ τὸν δρόμον, συναφεῖλεν αὐτοῦ τὴν οὐσίαν· οὕτως καὶ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ εἴ τις ἀφέλοι τὴν ἀκρίβειαν καὶ τὴν στάσιν, συναφεῖλεν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν φύσιν· οὐ γὰρ χρόνῳ τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἀνθεῖ, ὡς ὥρα σώματος.
