[3] Ἦν οὖν ἐξ ἀπλοίας μακρᾶς πλεόντων πάντα μεστὰ καὶ πολλή τις ὄψεως ἡδονή, ναυτῶν ᾠδή, πλωτήρων κρότος, χορεία νεῶν, καὶ ἦν ἅπας ὁ ποταμὸς ἑορτή: ἐῴκει δὲ ὁ πλοῦς κωμάζοντι ποταμῷ. Ἔπινον δὲ καὶ τοῦ Νείλου τότε πρῶτον ἄνευ τῆς πρὸς οἶνον ὁμιλίας, κρῖναι θέλων τοῦ πώματος τὴν ἡδονήν: οἶνος γὰρ φύσεως ὕδατος κλοπή.
