[211]

ἀλλὰ γὰρ ἐμπεσὼν εἰς τὰ πεπραγμένα τοῖς προγόνοις ὑμῶν ἔστιν ἃ τῶν ψηφισμάτων παρέβην καὶ τῶν πραχθέντων. ἐπανελθεῖν οὖν ὁπόθεν ἐνταῦθ᾽ ἐξέβην βούλομαι.

ὡς γὰρ ἀφικόμεθ᾽ εἰς τὰς Θήβας, κατελαμβάνομεν Φιλίππου καὶ Θετταλῶν καὶ τῶν ἄλλων συμμάχων παρόντας πρέσβεις, καὶ τοὺς μὲν ἡμετέρους φίλους ἐν φόβῳ, τοὺς δ᾽ ἐκείνου θρασεῖς. ὅτι δ᾽ οὐ νῦν ταῦτα λέγω τοῦ συμφέροντος εἵνεκ᾽ ἐμαυτῷ, λέγε μοι τὴν ἐπιστολὴν ἣν τότ᾽ ἐπέμψαμεν εὐθὺς οἱ πρέσβεις.
