οὐκ ἐκβαίνει δὲ τοῦ σώματα εἶναι, ἀλ|λὰ καὶ τὸ μέλαν, ὅτε ἐκ λευκοῦ γέγονε μέλαν, καὶ τὸ πικρόν, ὅτε ἐκ τοῦ γλυκέος γέγονε πικρόν, καὶ τὸ ὄξος, ὅτε ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου γέγονεν ὄξος, μένει σώματα, οὕτω καὶ ταῦτα, εἴπερ μεταβάλλει εἰς σώματα, ἄλλα μὲν ἀντʼ ἄλ- λων ἔσται σώματα, σώματα δὲ οὐδὲν ἧττον οὐ γὰρ ἐκβήσεται τὴν ἰδίαν φύσιν. εἰ οὖν οὔτε πρὶν τῆς συνελεύ- σεως τούτων ἔστι νοῆσαι τὸ σῶμα οὔτε μετὰ τὴν συν- έλευσιν αὐτῶν, παρὰ δὲ ταῦτα οὐκ ἔστιν ἄλλως ἐπινοῆ- σαι, οὐδέν ἐστι σῶμα.
