[207.2] The remarkable ethical fragment of an unknown philosopher,
Eusebios, in Ionic dialect, quoted by Stobæus, περὶ ἀρετῆς, § 85 (vol.

resemble New Testament doctrine, and may possibly have been intended
as a prayer, but it contains no appeal to a divinity: he may belong to
the Neo-Platonic sect, _vide_ Orelli, _Opusc. Græc. Sentent._, vol.
