ὁρᾷ, ἢ μᾶλλον οὑτωσὶ λέγωμεν, ὅτι ἔοικεν τὸ ἀδικεῖν καὶ ἀδικεῖσθαι τῷ ἐλέγχειν καὶ ἐλέγχεσθαι· ἐλέγχει μὲν γὰρ ὁ τὸ ἀληθὲς εἰδώς, ἐλέγχεται δὲ ὁ ἀγνοῶν· καὶ ὡς οὐκ ἂν εἴη οὔτε τοῦ τἀληθὲς εἰδότος τὸ ἐλέγχεσθαι, οὔτε τοῦ τἀληθές οὐκ εἰδότος τὸ ἐλέγχειν, οὕτως οὐδὲ τὸ ἀδικεῖν εἴη ἂν καὶ τὸ ἀδικεῖσθαι τοῦ αὐτοῦ.
