  • ξύνηθεσ δὲ καὶ τοῖσ ὑπό τε ἀνάγκαισ ἐκδεδιῃ τημ ένοισ λεπτῇ καὶ σκληροτέρῃ διαίτῃ, ἀτὰρ καὶ τοῖσι ἐσ παιδείην πονεῦσι, καὶ ἐσ τήνδε τλήμοσι, οἷσι θείησ μὲν μαθήσιοσ ποθὴ, ὀλιγοσιτίη δὲ καὶ ἀγρυπνίη, καὶ μελεδώνη λόγων τε καὶ πρηγμάτων σοφῶν· οἷσι ὑπεροψίη μὲν διαίτησ ἁδρῆσ καὶ ποικίλησ, λιμὸσ δὲ ἡ τροφὴ, καὶ ὕδωρ ποτὸν, καὶ ἐν ὕπνῳ ἀϋπνίη.
