ὅσαι δὲ τὰ τῶν ἄλλων κυνῶν εὑρήματα ἐν ταῖς ἰχνείαις καὶ μεταδρομαῖς προθέουσαι θαμινὰ σκοποῦσιν, ἑαυταῖς ἀπίστως ἔχουσι· θρασεῖαι δʼ αἳ οὐκ ἐῶσι τῶν συνεργῶν τὰς σοφωτέρας εἰς τὸ πρόσθεν προιέναι, ἀλλʼ ἀνείργουσι θορυβοῦσαι· αἱ δὲ ἀσπαζόμεναι τὰ ψευδῆ καὶ ὑπερλαμπρυνόμεναι ἐφʼ ὅτῳ ἂν τύχωσι προάγουσι συνειδυῖαι ἑαυταῖς ὅτι ἐξαπατῶσιν· αἱ δʼ οὐκ εἰδυῖαι τὸ αὐτὸ ποιοῦσι ταύταις· φαῦλαι δὲ αἳ οὐκ ἀπαλλαττόμεναι ἐκ τῶν τριμμῶν τὰ ὀρθὰ οὐ γιγνώσκουσιν.
