εἰρηκὼς κατὰ δύναμιν περί τε τῆς πρώτης μουσικῆς καὶ τῶν πρῶτον εὑρόντων αὐτήν καὶ ὑπὸ τίνων κατὰ χρόνους; ταῖς προσεξευρέσεσιν ηὔξηται καταπαύσω τὸν λόγον καὶ παραδώσω τῷ ἑταίρῳ Σωτηρίχῳ, ἐσπουδακότι οὐ μόνον περὶ μουσικὴν ἀλλὰ καὶ περὶ τὴν ἄλλην ἐγκύκλιον παιδείαν ἡμεῖς; γὰρ μᾶλλον χειρουργικῷ μέρει τῆς μουσικῆς ἐγγεγυμνάσμεθα. ὁ μὲν Λυσίας ταῦτʼ εἰπὼν κατέπαυσε τὸν λόγον.
