[19] φησὶν γὰρ τοῖς περὶ ὧν ὁ λόγος καὶ γυναῖκας συνεῖναι, ὧν αἱ πλεῖσται γηραλέαι παρθένοι τυγχάνουσιν, τὴν ἁγνείαν οὐκ ἀνάγκῃ, καθάπερ ἔνιαι τῶν παῤ Ἕλλησιν ἱερειῶν, φυλάξασαι μᾶλλον ἢ καθ̓ ἑκούσιον γνώμην, διὰ ζῆλον καὶ πόθον σοφίας, ᾗ συμβιοῦν σπουδάσασαι τῶν περὶ τὸ σῶμα ἡδονῶν ἠλόγησαν, οὐ θνητῶν ἐκγόνων, ἀλλ̓ ἀθανάτων ὀρεχθεῖσαι, ἃ μόνη τίκτειν ἀφ̓ ἑαυτῆς οἵα τέ ἐστιν ἡ θεοφιλὴς ψυχή.
