τίνι γὰρ δι’ εὐνοίας ἀφίξεσθε, γενόμενοι τῶν ἰδίων τέκνων αὐτόχειρες; οἱ τὰς πόλεις τό γ’ ἐφ’ ὑμῖν ἧκον μέρος ἐρημοῦντες, ἀπὸ τῶν ἐγγυτάτω γένους ἀρξάμενοι τῆς ἀπωλείας, οἱ τοὺς τῆς φύσεως θεσμοὺς ἀνατρέποντες καὶ ὅσα ἂν οἰκοδομῇ καθαιροῦντες, δι’ ἀνημέρου καὶ ἀτιθάσου ψυχῆς ὠμότητα γενέσει φθορὰν καὶ ζωῇ θάνατον ἐπιτειχίζοντες.
