Greek text · Dindorf 4:115

ταῦτα μὲν οὐν ἡμῖν περὶ τῆς τοῦ κατὰ Ἰωάννην εὐαγγελίου γραφῆς εἰρήσθω. καὶ τῆς κατὰ Μάρκον δὲ ἡ γενομένη αἰτία ἐν τοῖς πρόσθεν ἡμῖν δεδήλωται.

Let this be said by us about the writing of the Gospel according to John. And the cause of that according to Mark has been shown by us earlier.
