οὕτω τὸ πρέπον αὐτοῖς εὐτρεπίσας γέρας, εἰσελθεῖν τε ἐπέτρεψε καὶ περὶ τῶν προκειμένων βουλεύσαοθαι. εἰσεiήλυθε δὲ καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσχατος σὺν ὀλίγοις, ἀξιέπαινον μὲν ἔχων τὸ μέγεθος, ἀξιάγαστον δὲ τὴν ὥραν, θαυμασιωτέραν δὲ τὴν τοῖς μετώποις ἐπικαθημένην αἰδῶ. θρόνου δὲ σμικροῦ τεθέντος ἐν μέσῳ κεκάθικεν, ἐπιτρέψαι τοῦτο τοὺς ἐπισκόπους αἰτήσας· σὺν αὐτῶ, δὲ καὶ ἅπας ὁ θεῖος ἐκεῖνος ἐκαθέσθη χορός.
