b. ἕπεται δὲ λόγος εὐθρόνοις Κάδμοιο κούραις: οἰκειότατα πρὸς τὴν γνώμην ἑαυτοῦ καὶ τὸ παράδειγμα λαμβάνει, ὅτι τοὺς προδυστυχήσαντας καὶ εὐδαιμονία διαδέχεται, ὥσπερ καὶ τὰς Κάδμου θυγατέρας. ὁ αὐτὸς γὰρ λόγος διαδέχεται αὐτὰς καὶ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν ἁρμόζει. αὗται γὰρ τὸ μὲν πρότερον εἰς τοσαύτην δυστυχιῶν ὑπερβολὴν ἐληλύθασιν ὥστε καὶ τραγικαῖς ὑποθέσεσι χορηγίαν παρασχεῖν· ἀλλ᾿ ἐφάμιλλος καὶ εὐδαιμονία τὰς κόρας διεδέξατο· τούτων δὲ μέμνηται, ἐπεὶ ὁ Θήρων εἰς Λάιον ἀνάγει τὸ γένος.
