τὸν δʼ εἰς τοιαῦτα καταστήσαντά μʼ ἀδίκως ἀδιάλλακτον ἐχθρὸν ἡγούμην. ἰδὼν δʼ ἠδικηκότα κοινῇ πᾶσαν τὴν πόλιν καὶ περὶ τὴν εἴσπραξιν τῶν εἰσφορῶν καὶ περὶ τὴν ποίησιν τῶν πομπείων, καὶ χρήματα πολλὰ τῆς θεοῦ καὶ τῶν ἐπωνύμων καὶ τῆς πόλεως ἔχοντα καὶ οὐκ ἀποδιδόντα, ἦλθον ἐπʼ αὐτὸν μετʼ Εὐκτήμονος, ἡγούμενος ἁρμόττοντʼ εἰληφέναι καιρὸν τοῦ βοηθῆσαί θʼ ἅμα τῇ πόλει καὶ τιμωρίαν ὑπὲρ ὧν ἐπεπόνθειν λαβεῖν· βουλοίμην δʼ ἂν ἐμέ τε τυχεῖν ὧν βούλομαι τοῦτόν τε παθεῖν ὧν ἄξιός ἐστι.
