[20]
ἄμεινον ἦν πιθανώτερον αὐτὸ ποιεῖν καί
τινα θησαυρὸν ὑπὸ τῇ κλίνῃ ἀνευρεῖν, ὡς μὴ πράγματα
ἔχοις ἐκ τοῦ πλοίου μετατιθεὶς χρυσίον ἐς τὸ ἄστυ.
[p. 222]
Ἀδείμαντος
εὖ λέγεις, καὶ ἀνορωρύχθω θησαυρὸς
ὑπὸ τὸν Ἑρμῆν τὸν λίθινον, ὅς ἐστιν ἡμῖν ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ,
μέδιμνοι χίλιοι χρυσίου ἐπισήμου. εὐθὺς οὖν κατὰ τὸν
Ἡσίοδον οἶκος τὸ πρῶτον, ὡς ἂν ἐπισημότατα οἰκοίην,
καὶ τὰ περὶ τὸ ἄστυ πάντα ὠνησάμην ἤδη πλὴν ὅσα
Ἰσθμοῖ καὶ Πυθοῖ, καὶ ἐν Ἐλευσῖνι ὅσα ἐπὶ θαλάττῃ καὶ
περὶ τὸν Ἰσθμὸν ὀλίγα τῶν ἀγώνων ἕνεκα, εἴ ποτε δὴ
τὰ Ἴσθμια ἐπιδημήσαιμι, καὶ τὸ Σικυώνιον πεδίον, καὶ
ὅλως εἴ πού τι συνηρεφὲς ἢ ἔνυδρον ἢ εὔκαρπον ἐν τῇ
Ἑλλάδι, πάντα ἐν ὀλίγῳ Ἀδειμάντου ἔστω. ὁ χρυσὸς δὲ
κοῖλος ἡμῖν ἐμφαγεῖν, τὰ δὲ ἐκπώματα οὐ κοῦφα ὡς τὰ
Ἐχεκράτους, ἀλλὰ διτάλαντον ἕκαστον τὴν ὁλκήν.
