ἡ μὲν οὖν σωματικαῖς συζυγίαις ὑποβάλλουσα αὑτὴν οἰκήτορας ἔχει τοὺς λεχθέντας· ἑρμηνεύεται δὲ ὁ μὲν Ἀχειμὰν ἀδελφός μου, ὁ δὲ Σεσεὶν ἐκτός μου, ὁ δὲ Θαλαμεὶν κρεμάμενός τις· ἀνάγκη γὰρ ψυχαῖς ταῖς φιλοσωμάτοις ἀδελφὸν μὲν νομίζεσθαι τὸ σῶμα, τὰ δὲ ἐκτὸς ἀγαθὰ διαφερόντως τετιμῆσθαι· ὅσαι δὲ τοῦτον διάκεινται τὸν τρόπον, ἀψύχων ἐκκρέμανται καὶ καθάπερ οἱ ἀνασκολοπισθέντες ἄχρι θανάτου φθαρταῖς ὕλαις προσήλωνται.
