Συνεχῶς δέ φησιν ἀχθόμενος βοᾷ. Ἐμπελάδην οἱονεὶ ἐμπελαστικῶς καὶ ὁρμητικῶς, ὁποῖά τις φὼς, ἤγουν ἀνὴρ, τὴν ἀμφιβρότην κώδειαν ἀποτμηθεὶς ξίφει· τοῦτο γὰρ τὸ ἀπαμηθείς, κώδειαν δὲ νῦν τὴν κεφαλὴν, καὶ ἀμφιβρότην τὴν ὅλον τὸν ἄνδρα συνέχουσαν κεφαλήν· ἡ γὰρ κεφαλὴ συνέχει πᾶν τὸ σῶμα· καὶ Ὅμηρος δὲ κώδειάν φησι τὴν κεφαλὴν, (Il. ξ 499)· ὁ δὲ φὴ κώδειαν ἀνασχών. Ἂλλως· καὶ γάρ φησιν, ἐνίοτε πλησιάζοντος αὐτῷ ἀνθρώπου τινὸς, μισανθρωπίαν νοσῶν καὶ βαρούμενος προΐεται φωνὴν ὡς ἀποκεφαλιζόμενος· τοῦτο δ’ εἶπε πλανηθεὶς ἐκ τοῦ ποιητοῦ καὶ κακῶς νοήσας τό (Il. κ. 457 et Od. χ 329)· φθεγγομένου δ’ ἄρα τοῦ γε κάρη κονίῃσιν ἐμίχθη.
