ὅπου καὶ Νέρων, τοσαύτην ἐπιθυμίαν καὶ σπουδὴν περὶ τοῦτο ἔχων, ὥστε μηδὲ τῶν ἐξ Ὀλυμπίας ἀποσχέσθαι μηδὲ τῶν ἐκ Δελφῶν, καίτοι πάντων μάλιστα τιμήσας ταῦτα τὰ ἱερά, ἔτι δὲ τοὺς πλείστους τῶν ἐκ τῆς ἀκροπόλεως Ἀθήνηθεν μετενεγκεῖν καὶ τῶν ἐκ Περγάμου πολλούς, αὐτῷ προσήκοντος ἐκείνου τοῦ τεμένους· περὶ μὲν γὰρ τῶν παρʼ ἄλλοις τί δεῖ λέγειν; τοὺς παρὰ μόνοις ὑμῖν εἴασε, καὶ τοσαύτην ἐπεδείξατο εὔνοιαν καὶ τιμὴν ἅμα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, ὥστε τὴν πόλιν ἅπασαν ἱερωτέραν κρῖναι τῶν πρώτων ἱερῶν.
