Περὶ δὲ Εὐφόρβου τοῦ Πάνθου καὶ ὡς γένοιτό τις ἐν Τροίᾳ Εὔφορβος καὶ ἀποθάνοι ὑπὸ τοῦ Μενέλεω, τὸν Πυθαγόρου, οἶμαι, τοῦ Σαμίου λόγον ἤκουσας· ἔλεγε γὰρ δὴ ὁ Πυθαγόρας Εὔφορβος γεγονέναι μεταφῦναί τε Ἴων μὲν ἐκ Τρωός, σοφὸς δὲ ἐκ πολεμικοῦ, κεκολασμένος δὲ ἐκ τρυφῶντος· τήν τε κόμην, ἣν σοφὸς γενόμενος ἐκόσμει τῷ αὐχμῷ, χρυσῆν ἐν Τροίᾳ ἐποιεῖτο ὁπότ’ ἦν Εὔφορβος.
