Translation
One should refer this to those wishing to linger on precarious and dangerous matters. And because he [who is] in a fire ought to step quickly out.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ἐν πυρὶ βέβηκας· τοῦτο ἐπιλέγειν χρὴ τοῖς ἐν ἐπισφαλέσι καὶ ἐπικινδύνοις πράγμασιν ἐμφιλοχωρεῖν ἐθέλουσι. καὶ ὅτι χρὴ τὸν ἐν πυρὶ ταχέως ἐκβαίνειν.
