εἰ τοίνυν, ὦ ἄνδρες Ἀθηναῖοι, τοῦτο δοκοῦσιν οὗτοι λέγειν μάλιστ᾽ ἰσχυρόν, ὡς ἀπεψηφίσαντό μου νῦν οἱ δημόται, ἐγὼ τετράκις ἐπιδεικνύω πρότερον, ὅθ᾽ ὁσίως ἄνευ συστάσεως ἐψηφίσαντο, καὶ ἐμὲ καὶ τὸν πατέρα δημότας αὑτῶν εἶναι ψηφισαμένους, πρῶτον μέν γε τοῦ πατρὸς δοκιμασθέντος, εἶτ᾽ ἐμοῦ, εἶτ᾽ ἐν τῇ προτέρᾳ διαψηφίσει, ὅτ᾽ ἠφάνισαν οὗτοι τὸ γραμματεῖον: τὸ δὲ τελευταῖον προκρίναντες ἐμὲ ἐψηφίσαντ᾽ ἐν τοῖς εὐγενεστάτοις κληροῦσθαι τῆς ἱερωσύνης τῷ Ἡρακλεῖ. καὶ ταῦτα πάντα μεμαρτύρηται.
