[10] ἕτεροι δ’ εἰσὶ τῆς ἀμείνονος μοίρας, οἳ νοῦν ἔφασαν ἐλθόντα πάντα διακοσμῆσαι, τὴν ἐξ ὀχλοκρατίας ἐν τοῖς οὖσιν ἀταξίαν εἰς ἀρχῆς νομίμου, βασιλείας, τάξιν ἀγαγόντα. τοῦ θιάσου
τούτου χορευτὴς Ἰακώβ ἐστιν, ὃς ἐπιστατεῖ τῆς ἐπισήμου ποικίλης ἀγέλης· ἐπίσημον δὲ πάλιν καὶ ποικίλον ἐν μὲν τοῖς ὅλοις τὸ εἶδος, ἐν δὲ ἀνθρώποις ἡ εὐπαίδευτος καὶ φιλομαθὴς διάνοια.
