[108] τῶν δὲ τὴν πίστιν ἱερὰν καὶ ἄσυλον ὄντως διαφυλαττόντων ὀλίγος ἐστὶν ἀριθμός. οὗτοι ταῦτα τὰ τρία ἀνατεθείκασι θεῷ, ψυχήν,
αἴσθησιν, λόγον· ἔλαβον γὰρ οὐχ ἑαυτοῖς, ἀλλ’ ἐκείνῳ πάντα ταῦτα, ὥστε εἰκότως ὡμολόγησαν κατ’ αὐτὸν εἶναι τὰς ἑκάστων ἐνεργείας, τοῦ νοῦ τὰς διανοήσεις, τοῦ λόγου τὰς ἑρμηνείας, τῆς αἰσθήσεως τὰς φαντασίας.

[108] But of those who really preserve their faith holy and inviolate, the number is very small. Such men attribute to God these three things: the soul, the external sense, and speech. For they have received all these things, not for themselves, but for him, in whose favour they naturally and appropriately confess that the energies according to each of these three things depend upon him, namely, the imaginations and apprehensions of the mind, the explanations of speech, and the perceptions of the outward senses.
