τῷ μὲν οὖν μετεωρολογικῷ μεῖζον οὐδὲν τοῦ κόσμου τὸ παράπαν εἶναι δοκεῖ, ᾧ καὶ τὰς τῶν γινομένων αἰτίας ἀνατίθησιν· ὁ δὲ σοφὸς ἀκριβεστέροις ὄμμασιν ἰδών τι τελεώτερον νοητὸν ἄρχον τε καὶ ἡγεμονεῦον, ὑφ’ οὗ τἄλλα δεσπόζεται καὶ κυβερνᾶται, πολλὰ κατεμέμψατο τῆς προτέρας ζωῆς ἑαυτὸν ὡς τυφλὸν βίον διεξεληλυθότα, σκηριπτόμενον ἐπὶ τοῖς αἰσθητοῖς, ἀβεβαίῳ καὶ ἀνιδρύτῳ φύσει πράγματι.
