Πᾶν κτῆνος διχηλοῦν ὁπλὴν, καὶ ἀνάγον μηρυκισμόν. Τὸ μὲν διχηλεῖν ἐπὶ τῆς ὁπλῆς, τὴν πορείαν καθʼ ἣν πρὸς πᾶν ὁτιοῦν ἐρχόμεθα τῶν ἀγαθῶν σπουδασμάτων ἐμφάνειεν· ὁδὲ μηρυκισμὸς, τὸ ἄνω τε καὶ κάτω ποιεῖν τῆς θεοπνεύστου Γραφῆς τοὺς λόγους, καὶ οἷον ἀναμασᾶσθαι καὶ καταλεπτύνειν ἐρεύναις τὰ κεκρυμμένα τῶν θεωρημάτων.
