ἐπεὶ δὲ τὸν ὄγκον οὐκ ἐνεγκὼν τῆς ἀρχῆς φυγῇ κατέστησεν ἑαυτὸν ἀφανῆ, καὶ Οὐράνιος δέ τις ἐκ δουλείου γένους ἀναρρηθεὶς παραχρῆμα μετὰ τῆς ἁλουργίδος Ἀλεξάνδρῳ προσήχθη, τὸ μὲν κατὰ τοῦ βασιλέως ηὐξάνετο μῖσος, ὃ δὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς πανταχόθεν περιεστῶσιν ἀπορούμενος τῷ τε σώματι καὶ τοῖς κατὰ φύσιν λογισμοῖς ἀλλοιότερος ἦν, ὥστε καὶ φιλαργυρίας αὐτῷ νόσον ἐνσκῆψαι καὶ χρημάτων ἐγκεῖσθαι συλλογῇ, ταῦτά τε παρὰ τῇ μητρὶ θησαυρίζειν.
