ὃ τοίνυν ἔμοιγε δοκεῖ μάλιστʼ ἄξιον ὀργῆς εἶναι, φράσω καὶ οὐκ ἀποτρέψομαι, ὅτι ταῦτʼ, ὦ ἄνδρες Ἀθηναῖοι, πράττων ἐπʼ ἀργυρίῳ, καὶ προῃρημένος ὡς ἀληθῶς μισθαρνεῖν, οὐκ εἰς ἃ καὶ συγγνώμην ἀκούσας ἄν τις ἔσχε, ταῦτʼ ἀναλίσκει. ταῦτα δʼ ἐστὶν τί; ὁ πατήρ, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, ὁ τούτου τῷ δημοσίῳ ὀφείλει· καὶ οὐκ ὀνειδίζων ἐκείνῳ λέγω, ἀλλʼ ἀναγκαζόμενος· καὶ οὗτος ὁ χρηστὸς περιορᾷ.
