Passage 1.43.6
μετὰ δὲ τοῦ Διονύσου τὸ ἱερόν ἐστιν Ἀφροδίτης ναός, ἄγαλμα δὲ ἐλέφαντος Ἀφροδίτη πεποιημένον Πρᾶξις ἐπίκλησιν. τοῦτό ἐστιν ἀρχαιότατον ἐν τῷ ναῷ· Πειθὼ δὲ καὶ ἑτέρα θεός, ἣν Παρήγορον ὀνομάζουσιν, ἔργα Πραξιτέλους · Σκόπα δὲ Ἔρως καὶ Ἵμερος καὶ Πόθος, εἰ δὴ διάφορά ἐστι κατὰ ταὐτὸ τοῖς ὀνόμασι καὶ τὰ ἔργα σφίσι. πλησίον δὲ τοῦ τῆς Ἀφροδίτης ναοῦ Τύχης ἐστὶν ἱερόν, Πραξιτέλους καὶ αὕτη τέχνη· καὶ ἐν τῷ ναῷ τῷ πλησίον Μούσας καὶ χαλκοῦν Δία ἐποίησε Λύσιππος .
Next to the sanctuary of Dionysus is a temple of Aphrodite. Inside is a statue of Aphrodite made of ivory, named Praxis. This is the most ancient artifact within the temple. Statues representing Persuasion and another goddess whom they call Comforter are works by Praxiteles. Eros, Himeros ("Desire"), and Pothos ("Yearning") were sculpted by Scopas, if indeed there is a difference between these deities according to their several names and statues. Near Aphrodite’s temple stands a sanctuary dedicated to Tyche, and this image too is a work of Praxiteles. Lysippus created the bronze statue of Zeus together with the Muses housed within the adjacent temple.
