Τύρσεις δεῖ ἀκούειν τὰς πόλεις, ἀλλ’ οὐ τὰς ἐπάλξεις, ὅπερ κυρίως σημαίνουσιν· ἀπεμφαίνων, γὰρ ὁ λόγος ἐστὶν, εἰ χάριν τῶν ἐπάλξεων οἱ δῆμοι τὰ τείχη ἔκτισαν, αλλὰ μὴ χάριν τῶν πόλεων. Σύγκληρα δὲ σύνοικα τῶν αὐτοκλήρων. Τὸ δὲ τέων οὐκ ὀρθῶς κεῖται· σημαίνει γὰρ τὸ τίνων· Ὅμηρος (Il. ω 387)· τέων δ′ ἔξ ἐσσι τοκήων; βούλεται δὲ λέγειν ὧν. Τζέτζης· τέων, τῶν, ὧν δωρικῶς· καλῶς ἔχει. Βλάστας δὲ τὰ βλαστήματα, τὰ γένη· ὁ γὰρ ἄνθρωπος δίκην φυτοῦ αὔξει. Τύρσεσι δὲ ταῖς πόλεσιν ἀπὸ μέρους τῶν τειχῶν.
