Ἀλλὰ τὸν μὲν ἐκ τῆς Εὐρώπης ἐπὶ τὴν Ἀσίαν πλέοντα, ἵνα ἴδῃ τὴν Αἰγυπτίων γῆν, καὶ τοῦ Νείλου τὰς ἐκβολάς, ἢ πυραμίδας ὑψηλάς, ἢ ὄρνεις ξένους, ἢ βοῦν, ἢ τράγον, μακαρίζομεν τῆς θέας· κἂν ἐπὶ τὸν Ἴστρον τὶς ἔλθῃ, κἂν τὸν Γάγγην ἴδῃ, κἄν τις αὐτόπτης γένηται Βαβυλῶνος κειμένης, ἢ τῶν ἐν Σάρδεσιν ποταμῶν, ἢ τῶν ἐν Ἰλίῳ τάφων, ἢ τῶν ἐν Ἑλλησπόντῳ τόπων·
