ἔτι τοίνυν ἔμοιγε δοκεῖ καὶ σφόδρʼ ἀναιδὴς ὁ τοιοῦτος εἶναι λόγος, ὡς γέγονεν καὶ πρότερόν τισιν ἄλλοις τοιαῦτα ψηφίσματα. οὐ γὰρ εἴ τι πώποτε μὴ κατὰ τοὺς νόμους ἐπράχθη, σὺ δὲ τοῦτʼ ἐμιμήσω, διὰ τοῦτʼ ἀποφεύγειν σοι προσήκει, ἀλλὰ τοὐναντίον πολὺ μᾶλλον ἁλίσκεσθαι διὰ ταῦτα. ὥσπερ γάρ, εἴ τις ἐκείνων ἑάλω, σὺ τάδʼ οὐκ ἂν ἔγραψας, οὕτως, ἐὰν σὺ νῦν ἁλῷς, ἄλλος οὐ γράψει.
