κἀκεῖνος ἔπεμψεν
αὐτῷ τάς τε Φιλίστου βίβλους καὶ τῶν Εὐριπίδου καὶ Σοφοκλέους καὶ
Αἰσχύλου τραγῳδιῶν συχνάς, καὶ Τελέστου καὶ Φιλοξένου διθυράμβους.
Ἀριστοτέλην δὲ θαυμάζων ἐν ἀρχῇ καὶ ἀγαπῶν οὐχ ἧττον, ὡς αὐτὸς
ἔλεγε, τοῦ πατρός, ὡς δι᾽ ἐκεῖνον μὲν ζῶν, διὰ τοῦτον δὲ καλῶς ζῶν,
ὕστερον ὑποπτότερον [p. 244] ἔσχεν, οὐχ ὥστε ποιῆσαί τι κακόν,
ἀλλ᾽ αἱ φιλοφροσύναι τὸ σφοδρὸν ἐκεῖνο καὶ στερκτικὸν οὐκ ἔχουσαι πρὸς
αὐτόν ἀλλοτριότητος ἐγένοντο τεκμήριον.
