Τί βούλεται τῷ Σωκράτει ταυτὶ τὰ κομψά, εἴτε αἰνίγματα, εἴτε εἰρωνεύματα; ἀποκρινάσθω ἡμῖν ὑπὲρ τοῦ Σωκράτους Πλάτων, ἢ Ξενοφῶν, ἢ Αἰσχίνης, ἤ τις ἄλλος τῶν ὁμοφώνων αὐτῷ. Ἐγὼ μὲν γὰρ θαυμάζω καὶ ἐκπλήττομαι, ὅπως τὰ μὲν Ὁμήρου ἔπη τῆς θαυμ||αστῆς πολιτείας καὶ τροφῆς τῶν νέων ἀπεπέμv αὐτῷ Ὁμήρῳ, στεφανώσας τὸν ποιητὴν καὶ χρίσας μύρῳ·
