ἐγὼ δʼ ἠξίουν πρὸς μὲν Μενέξενον πράττειν ὅ τι βούλοιτο, πρὸς δʼ ἐμὲ ποιεῖν αὐτὸν τὰ συγκείμενα. ἐν ἐκείνῳ μὲν οὖν τῷ χρόνῳ ταπεινὸς ἦν, οὐκ ἔχων ὅ τι χρήσαιτο τοῖς αὑτοῦ κακοῖς. καὶ γὰρ οὐ μόνον περὶ τῆς βασάνου καὶ τῆς δίκης ἐκείνης ἐδεδοίκει τῆς εἰληγμένης, ἀλλὰ καὶ περὶ τοῦ γραμματείου, ὅπως μὴ ὑπὸ τοῦ Μενεξένου συλληφθήσοιτο.
