Ταῦθ’ ὑπειπὼν φιλανθρωπίας μεστὸν νόμον ἑξῆς ἀναγράφει. ἐὰν θυγάτηρ, φησίν, ἱερέως γημαμένη μὴ ἱερεῖ χηρεύσῃ, τελευτήσαντος ἀνδρὸς ἢ καὶ ἔτι ζῶντος, ἄπαις καταλειφθεῖσα, πάλιν ἐπὶ τὸν πατρῷον οἶκον ἐπανερχέσθω μεταληψομένη τῶν ἀπαρχῶν, ὧν καὶ ἡνίκα παρθένος ἦν ἐκοινώνει· τρόπον γάρ τινα καὶ νῦν ἐστι δυνάμει παρθένος ἡ καὶ ἀνδρὸς καὶ παίδων ἔρημος, οὐδεμίαν ἑτέραν ἔχουσα καταφυγὴν ὅτι μὴ τὸν πατέρα.
