ὑμῖν γένη, χρυσοῦν τε καὶ ἀργυροῦν καὶ χαλκοῦν καὶ σιδηροῦν: ὁμοῦ δὲ μιγέντος σιδηροῦ ἀργυρῷ καὶ χαλκοῦ χρυσῷ ἀνομοιότης ἐγγενήσεται καὶ ἀνωμαλία ἀνάρμοστος, ἃ γενόμενα, οὗ ἂν ἐγγένηται, ἀεὶ τίκτει πόλεμον καὶ ἔχθραν. “ταύτης τοι γενεῆς”Hom. Il. 6.211 χρὴ φάναι εἶναι στάσιν, ὅπου ἂν γίγνηται ἀεί.καὶ ὀρθῶς γ᾽, ἔφη, αὐτὰς ἀποκρίνεσθαι φήσομεν.καὶ γάρ, ἦν δ᾽ ἐγώ, ἀνάγκη μούσας γε οὔσας.
