Note 60 — ON ABSTINENCE FROM ANIMAL FOOD. BOOK THE SECOND.
Thomas Taylor translation
Conformably to this, the Pythagorean Demophilus beautifully observes, Γυμνος αποσταλεις σοφος, γυμνιτευων καλεσει τον πεμψαντα· μονου γαρ του μη τοις αλλοτριοις πεφορτισμενου επηκοος ο θεος. i.e. “The wise man being sent hither naked, should naked invoke him by whom he was sent. For he alone is heard by divinity, who is not burdened with things of a foreign nature.”
