πρῶτον μὲν οὖν τοὺς παλαιοὺς κινδύνους τῶν προγόνων δίειμι, μνήμην παρὰ τῆς φήμης λαβών· ἄξιον γὰρ πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις κἀκείνων μεμνῆσθαι, ὑμνοῦντας μὲν ἐν ταῖς ᾠδαῖς, λέγοντας δʼ ἐν ταῖς τῶν ἀγαθῶν γνώμαις, τιμῶντας δʼ ἐν τοῖς καιροῖς τοῖς τοιούτοις, παιδεύοντας δʼ ἐν τοῖς τῶν τεθνεώτων ἔργοις τοὺς ζῶντας.
