ταῦτα μὲν τὰ ἐκ τοῦ πατρὸς τοῦ ἐμοῦ ἐς ὑμᾶς ὑπηργμένα, ὡς μὲν αὐτὰ ἐφʼ ἑαυτῶν σκέψασθαι μεγάλα, μικρὰ δὲ ὥς γε δὴ πρὸς τὰ ἡμέτερα ξυμβαλεῖν. ὃς παραλαβὼν παρὰ τοῦ πατρὸς χρυσᾶ μὲν καὶ ἀργυρᾶ ἐκπώματα ὀλίγα, τάλαντα δὲ οὐδὲ ἑξήκοντα ἐν τοῖς θησαυροῖς, χρεῶν δὲ ὀφειλόμενα ὑπὸ Φιλίππου ἐς πεντακόσια τάλαντα, δανεισάμενος ἐπὶ τούτοις αὐτὸς ἄλλα ὀκτακόσια ὁρμηθεὶς ἐκ τῆς χώρας τῆς γε οὐδὲ ὑμᾶς αὐτοὺς βοσκούσης καλῶς εὐθὺς μὲν τοῦ Ἑλληπόντου ὑμῖν τὸν πόρον θαλασσοκρατούντων ἐν τῷ τότε Περσῶν ἀνεπέτασα·
