ἄλλος δέ τις κἂν ἐκείνως ἐπιχειρήσειε λέγειν, ὡς εἰ μὴ ἔστι ψυχή, οὐδὲ αἰσθήσεις· μέρη γὰρ ταύτης ὑπῆρχον. εἰ δέ μή εἰσιν αἱ αἰσθήσεις, οὐδὲ τὰ αἰσθητά· πρὸς αἰσθήσει γὰρ ἡ τούτων ὑπόστα- σις νοεῖται. εἰ δὲ μὴ αἰσθητά, οὐδὲ φωνή εἶδος γάρ τι τῶν αἰσθητῶν ὑπῆρχεν. ἀλλὰ μὴν οὐδέν ἐστι ψυχή, καθ- ὼς ἐν τοῖς περὶ αὐτῆς ὑπομνήμασιν ἐδείκνυμεν· οὐκ ἄρα ἔστι φωνή.
