[3] ὅταν γὰρ ἀναπαύηται τὸ σῶμα, τότε σχολάζει τὸ ἕλκος νοσεῖν: τὰ δὲ τῆς ψυχῆς τραύματα μὴ κινουμένου τοῦ σώματος, πολὺ μᾶλλον ὀδυνᾷ. Ἐν ἡμέρᾳ μὲν γὰρ ὀφθαλμοὶ καὶ ὦτα πολλῆς γεμιζόμενα περιεργίας ἐπικουφίζει τῆς νόσου τὴν ἀκμήν, ἀντιπερισπῶντα τὴν ψυχὴν τῆς εἰς τὸ πονεῖν σχολῆς: ἐὰν δὲ ἡσυχίᾳ τὸ σῶμα πεδηθῇ, καθ̓ ἑαυτὴν ἡ ψυχὴ γενομένη τῷ κακῷ κυμαίνεται.
