ὅτι μὲν τοίνυν καὶ τὸ πρῶτον, οὗ πολεμεῖν ὑμῖν ᾤετο, ἐκεῖσʼ ἐμίσθωσεν αὑτὸν πολλαχόσʼ ἄλλοσε μισθῶσαι παρόν, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα, ὡς οὐδὲν ἐκεῖ κακὸν εἶχε ποιεῖν ὑμᾶς, ἔπλει δεῦρο πάλιν οὗ τἀναντίʼ ἔμελλε πράξειν τῇ πόλει, καὶ τοῦ μὴ λαβεῖν Ἀμφίπολιν πάντων οὗτος αἰτιώτατός ἐστιν, ἀκηκόατʼ ἐκ τῆς ἐπιστολῆς καὶ τῆς μαρτυρίας. καὶ τὰ μὲν πρῶτα τοιαῦτʼ ἐστὶν τῶν ἔργων τῶν Χαριδήμου, μετὰ ταῦτα δʼ ἄλλα θεάσασθε.
