θάνατον αἴσχιστον. ὡς δὲ ἀληθῆ ταῦτα γράφω,
καλῶ τοὺς θεοὺς ἅπαντας μάρτυρας. τὰ μὲν δὴ
γράμματα διὰ τοῦτο ἐπέσχον εἰσπέμψαι. ἐξ ἐκείνης
δέ μοι τῆς νυκτὸς λογισμὸς εἰσῆλθεν, οὗ καὶ
ὑμᾶς ἴσως ἄξιον ἀκοῦσαι. Νῦν, ἔφην, ἐγὼ τοῖς
θεοῖς ἀντιτάττεσθαι διανοοῦμαι, καὶ ὑπὲρ ἐμαυτοῦ
βουλεύεσθαι κρεῖττον νενόμικα τῶν πάντα εἰδότων.
καίτοι φρόνησις ἀνθρωπίνη πρὸς τὸ παρὸν
