ὑπάγουσαν δὲ αὐτὴν ἠρώτων, ἵνα μοι ἀποκαλύψῃ περὶ τῶν τριῶν μορφῶν, ἐν αἷς μοι ἐνεφανίσθη. ἀποκριθεῖσά μοι λέγει· Περὶ τούτων ἕτερον δεῖ σε ἐπερωτῆσαι, ἵνα σοι ἀποκαλυφθῇ.

As she was going I asked her to reveal to me about the three forms in which she had appeared to me. She answered me, “About these you must ask someone else, so that it may be revealed to you.”
