πολλὰ δὲ καὶ ἄλλα ἔχοι τις ἂν εἰπεῖν παρʼ Ὁμήρῳ παιδεύματα καὶ διδάγματα ἀνδρεῖα καὶ βασιλικά, ὑπὲρ ὧν ἴσως μακρότερον τοῦ νῦν ἐπεξιέναι. πλὴν ὅτι γε τὴν αὑτοῦ γνώμην ἅπασαν ἀποδείκνυται σαφῶς, ὅτι πάντων ἄριστον οἴεται δεῖν τὸν βασιλέα εἶναι,μάλιστα δὲ ἐπὶ τοῦ Ἀγαμέμνονος, ὅτε τὸ πρῶτον παρατάττει τὴν στρατιὰν καὶ τοὺς ἡγεμόνας σύμπαντας καταλέγει καὶ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν νεῶν.
