εὖ γε, ὦ σοφώτατοι, ἀμείνω ταῦτα καὶ νομιμώτερα. τοὺς μέντοι λίθους φυλάττετε, ὡς ἔφην: δεήσει γὰρ αὐτῶν μικρὸν ὕστερον ἐν τῷ δικαστηρίῳ. ποῦ δὲ τὴν Φιλοσοφίαν εὕροι τις ἄν; οὐ γὰρ
οἶδα ἔνθα οἰκεῖ: καίτοι πάνυ πολὺν ἐπλανήθην
χ;χρόνον ἀναζητῶν τὴν οἰκίαν, ὡς συγγενοίμην
αὐτῇ. εἶτα ἐντυγχάνων ἄν τισι τριβώνια περιβεβλημένοις καὶ πώγωνας βαθεῖς καθειμένοις παρ᾽
αὐτῆς ἐκείνης ἥκειν φάσκουσιν, οἰόμενος εἰδέναι
αὐτοὺς ἀνηρώτων: οἱ δὲ πολὺ μᾶλλον ἐμοῦ ἀγνοοῦντες ἢ οὐδὲν ὅλως ἀπεκρίναντό μοι, ὡς μὴ ἐλέγχοιντο οὐκ εἰδότες ἢ ἄλλην θύραν ἀντ᾽ ἄλλης ἐπεδείκνυον. οὐδέπω γοῦν καὶ τήμερον ἐξευρεῖν δεδύνημαι τὴν οἰκίαν.
