ἔχιδνα δὲ θιγόντος αὐτῆς μόνον φηγοῦ κλάδου καροῦται, καὶ νυκτερὶς πλατάνου φύλλου. φεύγει δὲ κριὸν μὲν ἐλέφας, λέων δὲ ἀλεκτρυόνα, καὶ θραγμὸν κυάμων ἐρεικομένων τὰ θαλάττια κήτη, καὶ τίγρις ψόφον τυμπάνου. καὶ ἄλλα δὲ πλείω τούτων ἔνεστι λέγειν· ἀλλ’ ἴνα μὴ μᾶλλον τοῦ δέοντος ἐνδιατρίβειν δοκῶμεν, εἰ τὰ αὐτὰ τοῖς μέν ἐστιν ἀηδῆ τοῖς δὲ ἡδέα, τὸ δὲ ἡδὺ καὶ ἀηδὲς ἐν φαντασίᾳ κεῖται, διάφοροι γίνονται τοῖς ζῴοις ἀπὸ τῶν ὑποκειμένων φαντασίαι.
