ἐν Χαιρωνείᾳ τοὺς Ἀθηναίους ἡνίκα ἐνίκησεν ὁ Φίλιππος, ἐπαρθεὶς τῇ εὐπραγίᾳ, ὅμως λογισμοῦ ἐκράτησε καὶ οὐχ ὕβρισε· καὶ διὰ ταῦτα ᾤετο δεῖν αὐτὸν ὑπομιμνήσκεσθαι ὑπό τινος τῶν παίδων ἕωθεν ὅτι ἄνθρωπός ἐστι, καὶ προσέταξε τῷ παιδὶ τοῦτο ἔχειν ἔργον. καὶ οὐ πρότερόν φασιν οὔτε αὐτὸς προῄει, οὔτε τις τῶν δεομένων αὐτοῦ παρʼ αὐτὸν ἐσῄει, πρὶν τοῦτο αὐτῷ τὸν παῖδα ἐκβοῆσαι τρίς.
