πίστις δὲ ἐναργὴς τῆς ἀδιαστάτου καὶ ἀιδίου περὶ γῆν ἀκμῆς τὰ φυόμενα· καθαρθεῖσα γὰρ ἢ ποταμῶν ἀναχύσεσιν, ὥσπερ φασὶν Αἴγυπτον, ἢ τοῖς ἐτησίοις ὄμβροις τὸν ἐκ τῆς φορᾶς κάματον ὑπανίεται καὶ χαλᾶται, κἄπειτα διαναπαυσαμένη τὴν οἰκείαν δύναμιν ἀνακτᾶται μέχρι παντελοῦς ῥώμης, εἶτ’ ἄρχεται πάλιν τῆς τῶν ὁμοίων γενέσεως τροφὰς ἀφθόνους
