ὡς οὖν τῇ προτέρᾳ, πράξει πέρας ἐπιτιθέντας καθέζεσθαι παρὰ τοῖς θεοῖς, ἵνα ἑτέρας πάλιν ἀρχὴν παρʼ ἐκείνων λάβωσι. δύναται δὲ καὶ τοῦτο τοῖς εἰρημένοις ὁμολογεῖν, ἐθίζοντος ἡμᾶς τοῦ νομοθέτου μὴ ποιεῖσθαι τὰς πρὸς τὸ θεῖον ἐντεύξεις ἐν ἀσχολίᾳ, καὶ παρέργως οἷον σπεύδοντας, ἀλλʼ ὅταν χρόνον ἔχωμεν καὶ σχολὴν ἄγω μεν.
