ἡ μὲν γὰρ μονας ἀρχὴ πάντων καὶ κυριωτάτη πα- σῶν . . . . . . . . καὶ ἐξ ἧς πάντα, αὐτὴ δὲ ἐξ οὐδενός, ἀδιαίρετος καὶ δυνάμει πάντα, ἀμετάβλητος, μηδεπώ- ποτε τῆς αὐτῆς ἐξισταμένη φύσεως κατὰ τὸν πολλαπλα- σιασμόν· καθʼ ἣν πᾶν τὸ νοητὸν καὶ ἀγέννητον καὶ ἡ τῶν ἰδεῶν φύσις καὶ ὁ θεὸς καὶ ὁ νοῦς καὶ τὸ καλὸν καὶ τὸ ἀγαθὸν καὶ ἑκάστη τῶν νοητῶν οὐσιῶν, οἷον αὐτὸ καλόν, αὐτὸ δίκαιον, αὐτὸ [τὸ] ἴσον· ἕκαστον γὰρ τού- των ὡς ἓν καὶ καθʼ ἑαυτὸ νοεῖται.
