ἐὰν ἡμεῖς ἔχωμεν. σκοπεῖτε δὲ ἐκ τοῦ παρεληλυθότος χρόνου, ὅσα φαίνεται ἀνηλωμένα εἰς τὴν πόλιν: καὶ νῦν ἀπὸ τῶν ὑπολοίπων τριηραρχῶ μὲν ἐγώ, τριηραρχῶν δὲ ὁ πατὴρ ἀπέθανεν, πειράσομαι δ᾽, ὥσπερ καὶ1 ἐκεῖνον ἑώρων, ὀλίγα κατὰ μικρὸν παρασκευάσασθαι εἰς τὰς κοινὰς ὠφελείας: ὥστε τῷ γ᾽ ἔργῳ πάλαι τῆς πόλεως2 ταῦτ᾽ ἐστι, καὶ οὔτ᾽ ἐγὼ ἀφῃρημένος ἀδικεῖσθαι οἰήσομαι, ὑμῖν τε πλείους οὕτως αἱ ὠφέλειαι ἢ εἰ δημεύσαιτε.
