Ῥωμαίων ἀρχὴν μέχρις ὠκεανοῦ προαγάγοιτε. ὑμῖν τε γὰρ ταῦτα δόξαν οἴσει, καὶ τὴν τοῦ κοινοῦ πατρὸς μνήμην χάρισιν ἀξίαις οὕτως ἀμείψεσθε, ὃν ἐπακούειν τε τῶν λεγομένων καὶ τὰ πραττόμενα ἐφορᾶν ἡγεῖσθε. εὐδαιμονοίημεν δ̓ ἂν τὰ δέοντα πράττοντες ὑπὸ τοιούτῳ μάρτυρι. καὶ τὰ μὲν πρότερον ὑμῖν ἀνδρείως κατορθωθέντα ἐς τὴν ἐκείνου σοφίαν τε καὶ στρατηγίαν τὴν ἀναφορὰν ἔχει: ὅσα δ̓ ἂν σὺν ἐμοὶ βασιλεῖ νέῳ προθύμως ἐπιδείξησθε, τούτων τὴν δόξαν πίστεώς
