διὰ τοῦτο καὶ ὡς κατασκόπους ᾐτιᾶτο καὶ περὶ τοῦ γένους ἐπυνθάνετο πρόφασιν τοῦ γνῶναι, εἰ περίεστιν ὁ ἀδελφός, ἀλλὰ μὴ ἐξ ἐπιβουλῆς ἀνῄρηται, καὶ ἕνα κατέσχε τοὺς ἄλλους ἐάσας ἀπαίρειν ὁμολογήσαντας ἀγαγεῖν τὸν νεώτατον, ὃν ἰδεῖν μάλιστ’ ἐπόθει καὶ τῆς ἐπ’ αὐτῷ χαλεπῆς καὶ βαρυτάτης ἀνίας ἀπαλλαγῆναι.
