Δημοσθένης ἐν τῷ πρὸς Καλλικλέα περὶ χωρίου βλάβης ἔπειτα δὲ τὸν χλῆδον ἐκβαλὼν εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν, ἐξ ὧν ὑψηλοτέραν καὶ στενωτέραν τὴν αὐτὴν ὁδὸν πεποιῆσθαι συμβέβηκεν. πᾶν πλῆθος χλῆδος λέγεται, καὶ ἐστὶν οἷον σωρός τις, μάλιστα δὲ τὸ τῶν ἀποκαθαρμάτων τε καὶ ἀποψημάτων, καὶ ἡ τῶν ποταμῶν πρόσχωσις, καὶ πολὺ μᾶλλον τῶν χειμάρρων, ὃ καὶ χέραδος καλεῖται. νῦν δὲ ἔοικεν ὁ ῥήτωρ λέγειν ὅτι χοῦν καὶ φρυγανώδη τινὰ ἐκ τοῦ χωρίου σωρὸν ὁ Καλλικλῆς εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν ἐμβέβληκεν, ὡς καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν τοῖς ἑξῆς ὑποσημαίνει. κέχρηνται δὲ τῷ ὀνόματι πολλοί. Αἰσχύλος Ἀργείοις καὶ παλτὰ κἀγκυλητὰ καὶ χλῆδον βαλών.
