ἔτι εἰ
μήτε μᾶλλον μήτε ἧττον, ὅθεν εἴρηται “καὶ σὸς μὲν οἰκτρὸς παῖδας ἀπολέσας πατήρ:
Οἰνεὺς δ᾽ ἄρ᾽ οὐχὶ τὸν Ἑλλάδος κλεινὸν ἀπολέσας γόνον;
” καὶ ὅτι, εἰ μηδὲ Θησεὺς ἠδίκησεν, οὐδ᾽ Ἀλέξανδρος, καὶ εἰ μηδ᾽ οἱ Τυνδαρίδαι, οὐδ᾽ Ἀλέξανδρος, καὶ εἰ Πάτροκλον Ἕκτωρ,
καὶ Ἀχιλλέα Ἀλέξανδρος. καὶ εἰ μηδ᾽ ἄλλοι τεχνῖται φαῦλοι, οὐδ᾽ οἱ φιλόσοφοι. καὶ εἰ μηδ᾽ οἱ στρατηγοὶ φαῦλοι ὅτι θανατοῦνται πολλάκις, οὐδ᾽ οἱ σοφισταί. καὶ ὅτι “εἰ δεῖ τὸν ἰδιώτην τῆς ὑμετέρας δόξης ἐπιμελεῖσθαι, καὶ ὑμᾶς τῆς τῶν Ἑλλήνων”.
