spoken thus, my father answered, “Callippus, I want to oblige you
（I should be mad, if I did not）, but on this condition, that I

Cephisiades himself, can cause me no trouble; but if they do not choose to do as
you say at my suggestion, you must talk to them yourself.”

like, you will force them to do what I want.”
