Τὸ ἡγεγομικὸν, ὡς ἐπὶ νύμφης μαστοί· ὅπερ ἐστὶν ὀξυδερκέστατον· διὸ παρείκασε δύο νεβροῖς δορκάδος νεμομένοις ἐν ὡραίοις τόποις καὶ εὐώδεσι· σημαίνων τά τε νοητὰ καὶ αἰσθητά· νεβροὺς δὲ, ἐπειδὴ νῦν ἐκ μέρους γινώσκομεν· ὅταν δὲ τὸ τέλειον ἔλθῃ, καταργοῦμεν τὴν νηπιότητα· ὅταν ὁ καύσων τοῦ παρόντος βίου παύσηται, καὶ καιρὸς τῆς ἀναψύξεως ἐπιστῇ, λυομένης καὶ τῆς σκιᾶς σκιὰ γάρ ἐστιν ὁ παρὼν βίος· τότε γὰρ ὡς τέλειοι, ἀλλʼ οὐχ ὡς νεβροὶ νεμηθησόμεθα.
