Occurrence 24531 (formerly occ/8491) Γεωργίου Ἰαμβεῖα εἰς τὸν θεοπάτορα Δαυΐδ Ἡ μουσικὴ μὲν Ὁρφέως πάλαι λύρα, Ἕλληνες ἥν ἔφησαν οἱ μυθογράφοι ἅπαντα τοῖς κρούμασιν ἕλκειν ἀθρόον, καὶ θαῦμα ταύτην μεῖζον εἶναι θαυμάτων, τοιοῦτον οὐδὲν ἐτραγῴδησε μέλος, οἵους ὁ Δαυὶδ ἐξετράνωσεν λόγους· πᾶσαν γὰρ ἐξαίρουσι μοῦσαν ὀργάνων, σύμφωνον ἐξᾴδουσαν ᾠδὴν ᾀσμάτων. Παρῆκεν Ὀρφεύς καὶ σεσίγηκεν λύρα· θέλγει γὰρ οὔτι δένδρα καὶ ζῷα πλάνη, Δαυὶδ δὲ νῦν πάρεστι καὶ λαλεῖ ξένα, καὶ τῇ θεοφθόγγῳ τε μέλπει κινύρᾳ, ἠχεῖ τὰ θεῖα καὶ κροτεῖ παρρησίᾳ, ἐν γῇ μελῳδεῖ καὶ συνᾴδει τοῖς ἄνω· καὶ κύκλα παμπόνηρα δαιμόνων τρέπει, παύει δὲ τῇ σύριγγι τῆς εὐρυθμίας, ὡς οἷα δυσκάθεκτα δεινὰ θηρία, ὁρμὰς παθῶν τε καὶ λογισμῶν ἀστάτων· ἕλκει βροτοὺς γὲ καὶ πρὸς ὕμνους προτρέπει, καὶ συγχορεύειν ἀγγέλοις ἐπιτρέπει· καὶ γὰρ σοφίζει καὶ πλατύνει καρδίαν, καὶ νοῦν καθαίρει καὶ μεταίρει τῶν κάτω, καὶ ζῆ τὸ πνεῦμα καὶ καταυγάζει φρένας, καὶ χειραγωγεῖ πρὸς τρίβους σωτηρίους.
