καὶ ὃν τρόπον τινὲς τῶν ἰατρῶν τὸν κατ’ ἀλήθειαν πυρέσσοντα οὐκ ἐξ ἑνὸς λαμβάνουσι συμπτώματος, καθάπερ σφυγμοῦ σφοδρότητος ἢ δαψιλοῦς θερμασίας, ἀλλ’ ἐκ συνδρομῆς, οἷον θερμασίας ἅμα καὶ σφυγμοῦ καὶ ἑλκώδους ἁφῆς καὶ ἐρυθήματος καὶ δίψους καὶ τῶν ἀνάλογον, οὕτω καὶ ὁ Ἀκαδημαϊκὸς τῇ συνδρομῇ τῶν φαντασιῶν ποιεῖται τὴν κρίσιν τῆς ἀληθείας, μηδεμιᾶς τε τῶν ἐν τῇ συνδρομῇ φαντασιῶν περισπώσης αὐτὸν ὡς ψευδοῦς λέγει ἀληθὲς εἶναι τὸ προσπῖπτον.
