καὶ μὴν εἰ αὐτίκα δὴ μάλα κραυγὴν ἀκούσαιτε πρὸς τῷ δικαστηρίῳ, εἶτʼ εἴποι τις ὡς ἀνέῳκται τὸ δεσμωτήριον, οἱ δὲ δεσμῶται φεύγουσιν, οὐδεὶς οὔτε γέρων οὔτʼ ὀλίγωρος οὕτως ὅστις οὐχὶ βοηθήσειεν ἂν καθʼ ὅσον δύναται. εἰ δὲ δή τις εἴποι παρελθὼν ὡς ὁ τούτους ἀφείς ἐστιν οὑτοσί, οὐδὲ λόγου τυχὼν ἂν εὐθὺς ἀπαχθεὶς θανάτῳ ζημιωθείη.
