(10) οὐ μὴν ἀλλ’ εἰ δεῖ πάντα τἄλλα παραλιπόντα συντόμως εἰπεῖν, ὑμεῖς ἔδοτε πολιτείαν Εὐαγόρᾳ τῷ Κυπρίῳ καὶ Διονυσίῳ τῷ Συρακοσίῳ καὶ τοῖς ἐκγόνοις τοῖς ἐκείνων. ἐὰν οὖν πείσητε τοὺς ἐκβαλόντας ἑκατέρους αὐτῶν ἀποδοῦναι πάλιν τὰς ἀρχὰς τοῖς ἐκπεσοῦσι, κομίζεσθε καὶ παρ’ ἐμοῦ τὴν Θρᾴκην, ὅσης Τήρης καὶ Κερσοβλέπτης ἦρχὸν. εἰ δὲ τοῖς μὲν ἐκείνων κρατήσασι μηδ’ ἐγκαλεῖν ἀξιοῦτε μηδέν, ἐμὲ δ’ ἐνοχλεῖτε, πῶς οὐ δικαίως ὑμᾶς ἀμυνοίμην ἄν;
