ἀλλʼ ὅμως κἀκεῖνα καὶ τάδε φήσουσʼ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν πράττειν. εἶτα ταῦθʼ ὑμεῖς ἀναδέξεσθʼ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν πεπρᾶχθαι, καὶ τὰ τῆς τούτων θρασύτητος καὶ πονηρίας ἔργα πράως οἴσετε; ἀλλὰ μισεῖν ὀφείλετε τοὺς τοιούτους, ὦ ἄνδρες Ἀθηναῖοι, μᾶλλον ἢ σῴζειν. τὸν γὰρ ὑπὲρ τῆς πόλεως πράττοντά τι καὶ πράων ὑμῶν τευξόμενον τὸ τῆς πόλεως ἦθος ἔχοντα δεῖ φαίνεσθαι.
