“ [4] Ὅταν οὖν εἰς γάμον ἐθέλωσιν ἀλλήλοις συνελθεῖν, ὁ μὲν εἰς τὸν αἰγιαλὸν ἐλθὼν συρίζει πρὸς τὴν θάλασσαν τῇ σμυραίνῃ σύμβολον, ἡ δὲ γνωρίζει τὸ σύνθημα καὶ ἐκ τῶν κυμάτων ἀναδύεται. Ἀλλ̓ οὐκ εὐθέως πρὸς τὸν νυμφίον ἐξέρχεται (οἶδε γὰρ ὅτι θάνατον ἐν τοῖς ὀδοῦσι φέρει), ἀλλ̓ ἄνεισιν εἰς πέτραν καὶ περιμένει τὸν νυμφίον καθῆραι τὸ στόμα. ”
