[169] ὁ δὲ διάλληλος τρόπος συνίσταται, ὅταν τὸ ὀφεῖλον
τοῦ ζητουμένου πράγματος εἶναι βεβαιωτικὸν χρείαν ἔχῃ ¹² 37 τῆς ἐκ τοῦ ζητουμένου πίστεως· ἔνθα μηδέτερον δθνάμενοι λαβεῖν πρὸς κατασκευὴν θατέρου, περὶ ἀμφοτέρων ἐπέχομεν. ὅτι δὲ πᾶν τὸ ζητούμενον εἰς τούτους ἀνάγειν τοὺς τρόπους ἐνδέχεται, διὰ βραχέων ὑποδείξομεν οὕτως.
