Δημοσθένης γὰρ οὑμὸς πατήρ, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, κατέλιπεν οὐσίαν μὲν σχεδὸν τεττάρων καὶ δέκα ταλάντων, ἐμὲ δʼ ἕπτʼ ἐτῶν ὄντα καὶ τὴν ἀδελφὴν πέντε, ἔτι δὲ τὴν ἡμετέραν μητέρα πεντήκοντα μνᾶς εἰς τὸν οἶκον εἰσενηνεγμένην. βουλευσάμενος δὲ περὶ ἡμῶν, ὅτʼ ἔμελλε τελευτᾶν, ἅπαντα ταῦτʼ ἐνεχείρισεν Ἀφόβῳ τε τουτῳὶ καὶ Δημοφῶντι τῷ Δήμωνος υἱεῖ, τούτοιν μὲν ἀδελφιδοῖν ὄντοιν, τῷ μὲν ἐξ ἀδελφοῦ, τῷ δʼ ἐξ ἀδελφῆς γεγονότοιν, ἔτι δὲ Θηριππίδῃ τῷ Παιανιεῖ, γένει μὲν οὐδὲν προσήκοντι, φίλῳ δʼ ἐκ παιδὸς ὑπάρχοντι.
