τὴν μὲν οὖν ἀνδρίαν ἐν τούτοις ἐπεδείξατο τοῖς ἔργοις ἐν οἷς αὐτὸς καθ᾽ αὑτὸν ἐκινδύνευσε, τὴν δ᾽ ἐπιστήμην ἣν εἶχε πρὸς τὸν πόλεμον, ἐν ταῖς μάχαις αἷς μεθ᾽ ὅλης τῆς πόλεως ἠγωνίσατο, τὴν δ᾽ εὐσέβειαν τὴν πρὸς τοὺς θεοὺς ἔν τε ταῖς Ἀδράστου καὶ ταῖς τῶν παίδων τῶν Ἡρακλέους ἱκετείαις, τοὺς μὲν γὰρ μάχῃ νικήσας Πελοποννησίους διέσωσε, τῷ δὲ τοὺς ὑπὸ τῇ Καδμείᾳ τελευτήσαντας βίᾳ Θηβαίων θάψαι παρέδωκε, τὴν δ᾽ ἄλλην ἀρετὴν καὶ τὴν σωφροσύνην ἔν τε τοῖς προειρημένοις καὶ μάλιστ᾽ ἐν οἷς τὴν πόλιν διῴκησεν.
