ἐμὲ μὲν ἄξιον ἐν τῇ τήμερον ἡμέρᾳ τῶν
Λεωκράτους ἀδικημάτων κατήγορον ποιῆσαι, ὃ καὶ τῷ δήμῳ καὶ τῇ πόλει
συμφέρει, ὑμᾶς δ᾽ ὡς ὑπὲρ πατέρων καὶ παίδων καὶ γυναικῶν καὶ πατρίδος καὶ
ἱερῶν βουλευομένους, καὶ ἔχοντας ὑπὸ τῇ ψήφῳ τὸν προδότην ἁπάντων τούτων,
ἀπαραιτήτους δικαστὰς1 καὶ νῦν καὶ εἰς τὸν λοιπὸν χρόνον γενέσθαι
τοῖς τὰ τοιαῦτα καὶ τηλικαῦτα παρανομοῦσιν: εἰ δὲ μήτε τὸν προδόντα τὴν
πατρίδα μήτε τὸν ἐγκαταλιπόντα τὴν πόλιν καὶ τὰ ἱερὰ εἰς τουτονὶ τὸν ἀγῶνα
καθίστημι, σωθῆναι αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ κινδύνου καὶ ὑπὸ τῶν θεῶν καὶ ὑφ᾽ ὑμῶν
τῶν δικαστῶν.
