τραπόμενοι
δὲ πρὸς λάχανα καὶ ῥίζας ὀλίγοις μὲν
ἐνετύγχανον τῶν συνήθων, ἀναγκαζόμενοι δὲ πειρᾶσθαι
καὶ τῶν ἀγεύστων πρότερον ἥψαντό τινος
πόας ἐπὶ θάνατον διὰ μανίας ἀγούσης. ὁ γὰρ
φαγὼν οὐδὲν ἐμέμνητο τῶν ἄλλων οὐδὲ ἐγίνωσκεν,
ἓν δ᾽ ἔργον εἶχε, κινεῖν καὶ στρέφειν πάντα λίθον,
ὥς τι μεγάλης σπουδῆς ἄξιον διαπραττόμενος.
