ὅτι μὲν οὖν καὶ ἐν τῇ προτέρᾳ δίκῃ ἡ τούτου μαρτυρία ψευδὴς ἔδοξεν εἶναι, ὁ τόθʼ ἑαλωκὼς μάρτυς σαφέστατα τοῦτον ἐξελέγχει. εἰ γὰρ μὴ ἐδόκει οὗτος τὰ ψευδῆ τότε μαρτυρῆσαι, δῆλον ὅτι ἐκεῖνός τʼ ἂν ἀποφυγὼν τὴν διαμαρτυρίαν ἀπῆλθε, καὶ κληρονόμος ἂν τῶν τοῦ θείου ἡ διαμαρτυρηθεῖσα γνησία θυγάτηρ εἶναι, ἀλλʼ οὐκ ἂν ἡ ἡμετέρα κατέστη μήτηρ.
