ἡ πενθερὰ δέ σοι τίμιον ὥσπερ ἡ μήτηρ ἔστω. φρένες τε γὰρ ἀγαθαὶ καὶ σὲ παῖδα μᾶλλον ἢ κηδεστὴν ἡγεῖται. καὶ χωρὶς τῶν ἄλλων τῆς ὁδοῦ τὸ μῆκος ἣν ἔπεισιν ἄξιον αἰδεσθῆναι. καὶ τὸ μέ- γιστον, ἄνδρα γὰρ αὐτῆς δεόμενον καὶ οἶκον ἀφεῖσα σοὶ τὴν θυγατέρα ἄγουσα ἔρχεται τερπομένη τε οἷς ἐπαινῇ καὶ τὸ τοιαῦτα ἀκούειν τοῦ πολλὰ κεκτῆσθαι πρότερον ποιουμένη.
