Ἀτὰρ οὖν καὶ τὰς περὶ τούτων δόξας ἐκ παραλλήλου θέντες, ἀθρήσατε, πότερα τούτων ἁρμοδιώτερα Θεῷ· τὸ τὸν ἀγαθὸν πονηρᾶς φύσεως φάναι δημιουργὸν καὶ τούτῳ μὴ μόνον τὴν γῆν, ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸν οὐρανὸν ἐγχειρίσαι καὶ ἐπιτρέψαι οἱ κυβερνᾶν, ᾗ βούλεται· ἢ τοὐναντίον εἰπεῖν, ὡς ἀναίτιος μὲν κακῶν παντάπασιν ὁ Θεός, αἱρέσει δὲ γνώμης οἱ δαίμονες γεγένηνται πονηροί, ὥσπερ δὴ καὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων οἱ πλεῖστοι.
