ἐγὼ δὲ τὸν λόγον ἡγοῦμαι τοῦτον οὐδὲ καθʼ ἓν λέγειν ἐνεῖναι τούτῳ. εἰ μὲν γὰρ ὑπὲρ τούτων, οὓς τὰ προσήκοντα φῂς πεποιηκέναι, θεῖναι τὸν νόμον ὁμολογεῖς, κατʼ ἐκεῖνο προσήκει σʼ ἁλίσκεσθαι φανερῶς, ὅτι μὴ τιθέναι νόμον, ἂν μὴ τὸν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ πᾶσι τοῖς πολίταις, ἄντικρυς οἱ κύριοι νόμοι λέγουσι, καθʼ οὓς οὗτοι δικάσειν ὀμωμόκασιν.
