οἶδα μὲν ὅτι πάντες εἰώθασι πλείω χάριν ἔχειν τοῖς ἐπαινοῦσιν ἢ τοῖς συμβουλεύουσιν, ἄλλως τε κἂν μὴ κελευσθεὶς ἐπιχειρῇ τις τοῦτο ποιεῖν. ἐγὼ δ’ εἰ μὲν μὴ καὶ πρότερον ἐτύγχανόν σοι παρῃνεκὼς μετὰ πολλῆς εὐνοίας, ἐξ ὧν ἐδόκεις μοι τὰ πρέποντα μάλιστ’ ἂν σαυτῷ πράττειν, ἴσως οὐδ’ ἂν νῦν ἐπεχείρουν ἀποφαίνεσθαι περὶ τῶν σοὶ συμβεβηκότων·
