μέγιστοι μὲν οὖν ἡμῖν εἰσιν οὗτοι μάρτυρες (οὐδαμοῦ γὰρ φανήσονται δίκην εἰληχότες ζῶντι τῷ Δημαρέτῳ)· οὐ μὴν ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸ πρᾶγμʼ ἄν τις αὐτὸ σκοπῶν καὶ θεωρῶν ἴδοι οὐ μόνον οὐχὶ λαβόντα, ἀλλʼ οὐδʼ ἐνὸν αὐτῷ λαβεῖν. ἦν μὲν γὰρ τὸ χρέως ἐν Βοσπόρῳ, ἀφίκετο δʼ οὐδεπώποτʼ εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον ὁ Δημάρετος· πῶς οὖν εἰσέπραξεν; ἔπεμψεν νὴ Δίʼ, εἴποι τις ἄν, τὸν κομιούμενον.
