[2] Καὶ ἤδη μοι γεγόνεσαν μῆνες ἕξ, καὶ τὸ πολὺ τοῦ πένθους ἤρχετο μαραίνεσθαι (χρόνος γὰρ λύπης φάρμακον καὶ πεπαίνει τῆς ψυχῆς τὰ ἕλκη: μεστὸς γὰρ ἥλιος ἡδονῆς, καὶ τὸ λυπῆσαν πρὸς ὀλίγον, κἂν ᾖ καθ̓ ὑπερβολήν, ἀναζεῖ μὲν ἐφ̓ ὅσον ἡ ψυχὴ κάεται, τῇ δὲ τῆς ἡμέρας ψυχαγωγίᾳ νικώμενον καταψύχεται), καί μου τις κατόπιν βαδίζοντος ἐν ἀγορᾷ τῆς χειρὸς ἄφνω λαβόμενος ἐπιστρέφει καὶ οὐδὲν εἰπὼν περιπτυξάμενός με πολλὰ κατεφίλει.
