ἵνα τοίνυν εἰδῆτʼ, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, ὅτι οὐ μόνον οὐκ ἀδικοῦνται νῦν, ἀλλὰ καὶ παρὰ πάντας ἡμῖν δικάζονται τοὺς νόμους, βούλομαι καὶ τοῦτον ὑμῖν τὸν νόμον εἰπεῖν, ὅστις διαρρήδην λέγει, ἐὰν πέντʼ ἔτη παρέλθῃ καὶ μὴ δικάσωνται, μηκέτʼ εἶναι τοῖς ὀρφανοῖς δίκην περὶ τῶν ἐκ τῆς ἐπιτροπῆς ἐγκλημάτων. καὶ ὑμῖν ἀναγνώσεται τὸν νόμον. ΝΟΜΟΣ.
