ἢ ἐγὼ μὲν ὁ τόν τε ὑπὲρ ἐμαυτοῦ χρόνον καὶ τοῦ συντριηράρχου λελῃτουργηκὼς ἐπετριηράρχησα ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν, σὺ δ᾽ οὐδὲν ἀνηλωκὼς οὐκ ἀξιοῖς οὐδὲ τὸν ὑπὲρ σεαυτοῦ χρόνον, παραλαβὼν τὴν ναῦν, λῃτουργῆσαι, οὐδὲ τὰ ἀναλώματ᾽ ἀποδοῦναι;’ λέγοντος δέ μου ταῦτα, ἀπεκρίνατό μοι ὅτι μύθους λέγοιμι. ὁ δὲ στρατηγὸς ἐμβαίνειν με ἐκέλευεν εἰς τὴν ναῦν καὶ ἀνάγεσθαι μεθ᾽ ἑαυτοῦ. ὡς οὖν ταῦτ᾽ ἀπεκρίνατο, ἀνάγνωθί μοι τὴν μαρτυρίαν.“Μαρτυρία”
