Greek text · Dindorf 4:115

καὶ ταῦτα μὲν ἡμεῖς περὶ τούτων· οἰκειότερον δὲ κατὰ καιρὸν διὰ τῆς τῶν ἀρχαίων παραθέσεως τὰ καὶ τοῖς ἄλλοις περὶ αὐτῶν εἰρημένα πειρασόμεθα δηλῶσαι.

English · Claude translation

This is what we say about these; but more fittingly, in due course, we shall try to show by quoting the ancients what others too have said about them.
