ἔλεος οὖν εἰσελθέτω σε γήρως ἀνδρὸς τοὺς ἀρετῆς ἄθλους κατὰ πᾶσαν ἡλικίαν διαπονήσαντος· τὰς κατὰ Συρίαν πόλεις εἰς ἀποδοχὴν αὑτοῦ καὶ τιμὴν ἐπέστρεψε, καίτοι ξενικωτέροις ἔθεσι καὶ νομίμοις καὶ πολὺ διεστῶσι χρώμενος, οὐ βραχεῖ τινι τῶν ἐγχωρίων ἠλλοτριωμένος· ἀλλ’ ἡ τοῦ βίου καλοκἀγαθία καὶ τὸ σύμφωνον καὶ ὁμολογούμενον πρὸς ἔργα λόγων καὶ πρὸς λόγους ἔργων ἐξενίκησεν, ὡς καὶ τοὺς ἕνεκα τῶν πατρίων μὴ εὐγνώμονας μεθαρμόσασθαι.
