ἐγὼ μὲν οὐδὲν οἶμαι. μηδαμῶς, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, τοὺς πένητας ἀτιμάζετε （ἱκανὸν γὰρ αὐτοῖς τὸ πένεσθαι κακόν）, μηδέ γε τοὺς ἐργάζεσθαι καὶ ζῆν ἐκ τοῦ δικαίου προαιρουμένους: ἀλλ᾽ ἀκούσαντες, ἐὰν ὑμῖν ἐπιδεικνύω τῆς μητρὸς τοὺς οἰκείους οἵους προσήκει εἶναι ἀνθρώποις ἐλευθέροις, ἃ καταιτιᾶται περὶ αὐτῆς, ταύτας τὰς διαβολὰς ἐξομνυμένους, καὶ μαρτυροῦντας αὐτὴν ἀστὴν οὖσαν εἰδέναι, οὓς ὑμεῖς φήσετε πιστοὺς εἶναι, δικαίαν ἡμῖν θέσθε τὴν ψῆφον.
