ἐγὼ δὲ οὔθʼ ὑμῖν χαριζόμενος οὔθʼ Ὁμήρῳ διαφερόμενος οὐδὲ τῆς δόξης φθονῶν ἐκείνῳ, πειράσομαι δεικνύειν ὅσα μοι δοκεῖ ψευδῆ εἰρηκέναι περὶ τῶν ἐνθάδε πραγμάτων, οὐκ ἄλλοθέν ποθεν,ἀλλʼ ἐξ αὐτῆς τῆς ποιήσεως ἐλέγχων, τῷ τε ἀληθεῖ βοηθῶν καὶ μάλιστα διὰ τὴν Ἀθηνᾶν, ὅπως μὴ δοκῇ ἀδίκως διαφθεῖραι τὴν αὑτῆς πόλιν μηδὲ ἐναντία βούλεσθαι τῷ αὑτῆς πατρί, οὐχ ἧττον δὲ διὰ τὴν Ἥραν καὶ τὴν Ἀφροδίτην.
