μή ποτ’ οὖν περὶ τοῦτο σπουδάσῃς τῆς ἱπποτροφίας τὸ εἶδος. οἱ μὲν γὰρ θάτερον μετιόντες ψεκτοὶ μὲν καὶ αὐτοί· πῶς γὰρ οὔ; παρ’ οἷς ἄλογα ζῷα μᾶλλον τετίμηται, ὧν ἐκ τῆς οἰκίας ἵππων μὲν ἀγέλαι κατευωχημένων ἀεὶ προέρχονται, ἀνθρώπων δὲ ἑπομένων οὐδὲ εἷς ἔρανον εἰς ἐπανόρθωσιν ἐνδείας, οὐ δωρεὰν εἰς περιουσίαν εὑρισκόμενος.
