[14]
διὸ δὴ ἐμοί τε καὶ τοῖς πολλοῖς ἡμῶν
οὐδεπώποτε ἔδοξαν οὗτοι ἄνθρωποι εἶναι, ἀλλὰ δαίμονες
παλαμναῖοί τινες καὶ ὥσπερ οἱ ποιηταὶ λέγουσι
βροτολοιγὼ ἤστην, οἳ δὴ ἐπὶ κοινῆς βουλευσάμενοι
ὅπως ἅπαντα ἀνθρώπεια γένη τε καὶ ἔργα ὡς ῥᾷστα
[p. 80]
καὶ τάχιστα διαφθείρειν ἱκανοὶ εἶεν, ἀνθρώπειόν τε
ἠμπίσχοντο σχῆμα καὶ ἀνθρωποδαίμονες γεγενημένοι
τῷ τρόπῳ τούτῳ ξύμπασαν τὴν οἰκουμένην κατέσεισαν.
