φανερὸν δ᾽ ὅτι ἀκολουθήσει καὶ τὰ ἐναντία πάθη τούτοις: ὁ μὲν γὰρ λυπούμενος ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀναξίως κακοπραγοῦσιν ἡσθήσεται ἢ ἄλυπος ἔσται ἐπὶ τοῖς ἐναντίως κακοπραγοῦσιν, οἷον τοὺς πατραλοίας καὶ μιαιφόνους, ὅταν τύχωσι τιμωρίας, οὐδεὶς ἂν λυπηθείη χρηστός:
δεῖ γὰρ χαίρειν ἐπὶ τοῖς τοιούτοις, ὡς δ᾽ αὔτως καὶ ἐπὶ τοῖς εὖ πράττουσι κατ᾽ ἀξίαν: ἄμφω γὰρ δίκαια, καὶ ποιεῖ χαίρειν τὸν ἐπιεικῆ: ἀνάγκη γὰρ ἐλπίζειν ὑπάρξαι ἂν ἅπερ τῷ ὁμοίῳ, καὶ αὑτῷ.
