τῶν ἐκ τοῦ θαλάμου περιττῶν. οἱ δὲ φέροντες διὰ μέσων ἐκφέρουσι τῶν φυλάκων, ὧν οἳ μὲν ἀπὸ μέθης ἐκραιπάλων, οἳ δὲ ἐγρηγορότες κἀκεῖνοι ἐς ὕπνον κατεφέροντο κατεχούσαις τε ταῖς χερσὶ τὰ δοράτια ἐπανεπαύοντο, οἳ δ̓ οὐ πάνυ τὸ ἐκφερόμενον τοῦ θαλάμου, ὅ τι ποτ̓ εἴη, ἐπολυπραγμόνουν, ἐπεὶ μηδὲ αὐτοῖς διέφερε ταῦτ̓ εἰδέναι. τὸ μὲν οὖν σῶμα τοῦ βασιλέως οὕτω κλαπὲν ἐκκομισθέν τε τῆς αὐλείου θύρας νύκτωρ ὀχήματι ἐπιθέντες ἐς τὸ προάστειον
