Καὶ ἐρεῖ γε ὁ Ἡρακλέων, τάχα δὲ τούτῳ κατὰ τὴν ἐκδοχὴν ταύτην συμπεριφερόμενός τις καὶ ἐκκλησιαστικός, ὅτι τῷ κατὰ τὸ » Ὁ θερισμὸς πολύς, οἱ δὲ ἐργάται ὀλίγοι« σημαινομένῳ ὁμοίως ταῦτα εἴρηται, τῷ ἑτοίμους πρὸς θερισμὸν καὶ ἐπιτηδείους πρὸς τὸ ἤδη συναχθῆναι εἰς τὴν ἀποθήκην διὰ τῆς πίστεως εἰς ἀνάπαυσιν εἶναι, καὶ ἐπιτηδείους πρὸς σωτηρίαν καὶ παραδοχὴν τοῦ λόγου· κατὰ μὲν τὸν Ἡρακλέωνα διὰ τὴν κατασκευὴν αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν φύσιν, κατὰ δὲ τὸν ἐκκλησιαστικὸν διά τινα εὐτρεπισμὸν Ι τοῦ ἡγεμονικοῦ ἑτοίμου πρὸς τελείωσιν, ἴνα καὶ θερισθῇ.
