σχεδὸν μὲν οὖν ἐπίσταμαι ὅτι πιστεύετέ μοι λέγοντι ὑπὲρ τῆς ἀπειρίας τε κἀνεπιστημοσύνης τῆς ἐμαυτοῦ, δῆλον ὡς διὰ τὴν αὑτῶν ἐπιστήμην καὶ φρόνησιν· καὶτοῦτο οὐκ ἐμοὶ μόνον, ἀλλὰ καὶ Σωκράτει δοκεῖτέ μοι πιστεύειν ἄν, ταὐτὰ ὑπὲρ αὑτοῦ προβαλλομένῳ πρὸς ἅπαντας ὡς οὐδὲν ᾔδει· τὸν δὲ Ἱππίαν καὶ τὸν Πῶλον καὶ τὸν Γοργίαν, ὧν ἕκαστος αὑτὸν μάλιστα ἐθαύμαζε καὶ ἐξεπλήττετο, σοφοὺς ἂν ἡγεῖσθαι καὶ μακαρίους·
