‘ [5] Ὅταν οὖν ἡ Διαβολὴ τοξεύσῃ τὸν λόγον, ὁ μὲν δίκην βέλους ἐξίπταται καὶ τιτρώσκει μὴ παρόντα καθ̓ οὗ πέμπεται, ὁ δὲ ἀκούων ταχὺ πείθεται καὶ ὀργῆς αὐτῷ πῦρ ἐξάπτεται καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν βληθέντα μαίνεται: τεχθεῖσα δὲ ἡ Φήμη τῷ τοξεύματι ῥεῖ μὲν εὐθὺς πολλὴ καὶ ἐπικλύζει τὰ ὦτα τῶν ἐντυχόντων, διάττει δὲ ἐπὶ πλεῖστον καταιγίζουσα τῷ τοῦ λόγου πνεύματι καὶ ἐξίπταται κουφιζομένη τῷ τῆς γλώττης πτερῷ. ’
