[5] οἷον γοῦν ὅταν ὁ Στωικὸς πρὸς τὸν Ἐπικούρειον ζητῇ λέγοντα ὅτι διῄρηται ἡ οὐσία ἢ ὧς ὁ θεὸς οὐ προνοεῖ τῶν ἐν κόσμῳ ἢ
ὅτι ἡ ἡδονὴ ἀγαθόν, πότερον κατείληφεν ἢ οὐ κατείφησὶ ¹ 57 ληφεν; καὶ εἰ μὲν κατείληφεν, ὑπάρχειν αὐτὰ λέγων ἄρδην ἀναιρεῖ τὴν Στοάν· εἰ δ’ οὐ κατείληφεν, οὐ δύναταί τι πρὸς αὐτὰ λέγειν.

[5] Thus, for example, when the Stoic criticizes the statement of the Epicurean that ‟Being is divided,”¹ or that ‟God does not foreknow events in the Universe,” or that ‟Pleasure is the Good,” has he apprehended or has he not apprehended? If he has apprehended these dogmas, by asserting their real truth he entirely overthrows the Porch; while if he has not apprehended them, he is unable to say anything against them.
