ἐμὲ δ᾽ εὐθὺς ἔπειθε περὶ ὀκτωκαίδεκ᾽ ἔτη γεγενημένον τὴν Εὐφήμου γῆμαι θυγατέρα, βουλόμενος παῖδας ἐξ ἐμοῦ γενομένους ἐπιδεῖν. ἐγὼ δέ, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, νομίζων δεῖν καὶ πρότερον καὶ ἐπειδὴ οὗτοι ἐλύπουν αὐτὸν δικαζόμενοι καὶ πράγματα παρέχοντε, ἐμὲ τοὐναντίον εὐφραίνειν ἅπαντα ποιοῦντα ὅσα ἐκείνῳ χαριεῖσθαι μέλλοιμι, ἐπείσθην αὐτῷ.
