XXIV You will know that men have freely chosen their troubles, Wretches, who neither discern the goods that are close by Nor give them heed; few understand deliverance from evils. Such is the fate that harms their minds: like cylinders They are borne here and there, to one thing and another, suffering endless troubles. For baneful discord follows along, secretly working its harm, Innate in us; you must not advance it, but withdraw and flee [Book Review]

XXV Father Zeus, from many evils you would surely deliver all men, If you would show to all what sort of daemon they have. But be of good courage, since the race of mortals is divine; To them sacred nature displays and reveals each thing. If you have a share in this, you will master my commands, Find a cure, and save your soul from sufferings like these. [REVIEW]Hermann S. Schibli - 2002 - In Hermann Sadun Schibli (ed.), Hierocles of Alexandria. New York: Oxford University Press.
