∆όξαν φησὶ τὸν μετασχη ματισμὸν καὶ μεταλλαγμὸν τῆς ἡμε τέρας φύσεως παρὰ τὸ νῦν ὁρώ μενον σχῆμα εἰς εὐκλεᾶ καὶ ἀσύγ κριτον δόξαν· ὧν δὲ καὶ δόξα μία, πολλῷ μᾶλλον καὶ οὐσία. ∆όξαν δὲ ἄλλως τὸν μετα σχηματισμὸν καὶ μεταπλασμὸν τῆς ἡμετέρας φύσεως τὸν εὐκλεᾶ καὶ ἀσύγκριτον ἔχοντα τὴν δόξαν παρὰ τὸ νῦν ὁρώμενον σχῆμα.
