Εἶχε δὲ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν Θηβαΐδι τὴν συνοικίαν. Ἐγένετο δὲ θεοφιλὴς εἰς ἄγαν, καὶ παραδόξων ἰάσεων καὶ σημείων δημιουργὸς, καὶ πρακτικὸς ὢν δὲ, καὶ τῶν εἰς φιλοσοφίαν ἡκόντων διδάσκαλος ἀγαθὸς καὶ χαρίεις: καὶ ἐπὶ τοσοῦτον ἐν ταῖς εὐχαῖς εὐήκοος, ὡς μηδὲν ἀνήνυτον γενέσθαι, ὧν παρὰ Θεοῦ ἐζήτησε: πάντως γὰρ σοφὸς ὢν, σοφῶς τὰς αἰτήσεις ἐποιεῖτο, αἷς τὸ θεῖον ἑτοίμως ἐπινεύειν πέφυκε.
