αἱ μὲν οὖν ἐννέα δυναστεῖαι τεττάρων παθῶν καὶ πέντε αἰσθήσεων φθαρταί τε καὶ φθορᾶς αἴτιαι, ὁ δ’ ὁρμητηρίῳ χρώμενος ταῖς ἀρεταῖς λόγος ἱερὸς καὶ θεῖος ὄντως, ἐν ἀριθμῷ ταττόμενος δεκάδι τῇ παντελείᾳ, πρὸς ἅμιλλαν ἐλθών, ἐρρωμενεστέρᾳ δυνάμει τῇ κατὰ θεὸν χρώμενος ἀνὰ κράτος νικᾷ τὰς εἰρημένας δυναστείας.
