As he was aware that the priests at Clarus and Didymi and Mallus were themselves in high repute for the same sort of divination, he made them his friends by sending many of his visitors to them, saying:

Now unto Clarus begone, to the voice of my father[*] to hearken.”
and at another time,
Visit the fane of the Branchids and hear what the oracle sayeth,
and again,
Make thy way unto Mallus and let Amphilochus answer.
