ὅτι Δημήτριος τοσούτων ἐθνῶν ἡγεμονεύων ἐφοίτα ἐς Ααμίας τῆς ἑταίρας σὺν τοῖς ὅπλοις καὶ φορῶν τὸ διάδημα. αἴσχιστον μὲν οὖν ἦν αὐτῷ καὶ οἴκαδε μεταπέμψασθαι τὴν ἄνθρωπον· ὃ δὲ παρʼ ἐκείνην ἐφοίτα φανερῶς. ἀλλʼ ἔγωγε Θεόδωρον ἂν τὸν αὐλητὴν προτιμήσαιμι τοῦ Δημητρίου, ἐπεὶ τὸν Θεόδωρον μετεπέμπετο ἡ Λάμια, ὃ δὲ ὑπερεῖδε τὴν κλῆσιν.
