λαβὼν δὲ τῶν ξένων οἶκτον ὁ εὐμενὴς καὶ ἵλεως καὶ ὑπέρμαχος τῶν ἀδικουμένων ἀλγηδόνας δυσκαρτερήτους καὶ χαλεπὰς τιμωρίας ἐπάγει τῷ βασιλεῖ, παντοίων κακῶν ἀναπλήσας αὐτοῦ σῶμα καὶ ψυχὴν δυσιάτων, ὡς τὰς μὲν ἐφ’ ἡδονὴν ἀγούσας ὀρέξεις ἁπάσας ἐκκεκόφθαι, τὰς δ’ ἐναντίας παρεισεληλυθέναι φροντίδας περὶ ἀπαλλαγῆς ἀνηνύτων βασάνων, ὑφ’ ὧν γυμναζόμενος μεθ’ ἡμέραν καὶ νύκτωρ ἐξετραχηλίζετο.
