ἡ δ’ αἰτία τῆς ἐπιθέσεως ἀρχὴν ἔλαβε τοιάνδε. καρπῶν ἀφορίας ἐπὶ συχνὸν χρόνον γενομένης, τοτὲ μὲν διὰ πολλὴν καὶ ἄμετρον ἐπομβρίαν τοτὲ δὲ δι’ αὐχμὸν καὶ ζάλην, αἱ κατὰ Συρίαν πόλεις συνεχεῖ λιμῷ πιεσθεῖσαι κεναὶ τῶν οἰκητόρων ἦσαν, ἄλλων ἀλλαχόσε σκιδναμένων κατὰ ζήτησιν τροφῆς καὶ πορισμὸν τῶν ἀναγκαίων.
