Eusebius, Praeparatio Evangelica, ed. Wilhelm Dindorf, 12.51.46

[46] Οὐ γάρ που δοκοῦμέν γε, ὠ Πρώταρχε, τὰ τέτταρα ἐκεῖνα, πέρας καὶ ἄπειρον καὶ κοινὸν καὶ τὸ τῆς αἰτίας γένος ἐν ἅπασι τέταρτον ἐνὸν, τοῦτ’ ἐν μὲν τοῖς παρ᾿ ἡμῖν ψυχήν τε παρέχον καὶ σωμασκίαν ἐμποιοῦν καὶ πταίσαντος σώματος ἰατρικὴν καὶ ἐν ἄλλοις ἄλλα συντιθὲν καὶ ἀσκούμενον πᾶσαν καὶ 630 παντοίαν σοφίαν ἐπικαλεῖσθαι , τῶν δὲ αὐτῶν τούτων ὄντων ἐν ὅλῳ τε οὐρανῷ καὶ κατὰ μεγάλα μέρη,
καὶ προσέτι καλῶν καὶ εἰλικρινῶν, ἐν τούτοις δὲ οὐκ ἄρα μεμηχανῆσθαι τὴν τῶν καλλίστων καὶ τιμιωτάτων φύσιν.

Ἀλλ’ οὐδαμῶς τοῦτό γ᾿ ἂν λόγον ἔχοι.
