εἰ γὰρ μὴ παρεκρούσθητε τόθʼ ὑμεῖς, οὐδὲν ἂν ἦν τῇ πόλει πρᾶγμα· οὔτε γὰρ ναυσὶ δήπου κρατήσας εἰς τὴν Ἀττικὴν ἦλθεν ἄν ποτε στόλῳ Φίλιππος, οὔτε πεζῇ βαδίζων ὑπὲρ τὰς Πύλας καὶ Φωκέας, ἀλλʼ ἢ τὰ δίκαιʼ ἂν ἐποίει καὶ τὴν εἰρήνην ἄγων ἡσυχίαν εἶχεν, ἢ παραχρῆμʼ ἂν ἦν ἐν ὁμοίῳ πολέμῳ διʼ ὃν τότε τῆς εἰρήνης ἐπεθύμησεν.
