[56]
νὴ Δί᾽ ἀνάξιοι γάρ τινες τῶν εὑρημένων ταῦτ᾽ ἦσαν: τουτὶ γὰρ παρὰ πάντ᾽ ἔσται τὸν λόγον αὐτοῖς. ἔπειτ᾽ ἐκεῖν᾽ ἀγνοεῖν φήσομεν, ὅτι τὴν ἀξίαν, ὅταν διδῶμεν, δεῖ σκοπεῖν, οὐ μετὰ ταῦθ᾽ ὕστερον χρόνῳ παμπληθεῖ; τὸ μὲν γὰρ ἐξ ἀρχῆς τι μὴ δοῦναι γνώμῃ χρησαμένων ἔργον ἀνθρώπων ἐστί: τὸ δὲ τοὺς ἔχοντας ἀφαιρεῖσθαι φθονούντων, τοῦτο δ᾽ οὐ δεῖ δοκεῖν ὑμᾶς πεπονθέναι.
