[63]
εὖ λέγεις: καὶ οὕτω ποιῶμεν.
Μνήσιππος
ἀλλὰ μήτε αἵματος, ὦ Τόξαρι, μήτε ἀκινάκου
δεώμεθα τὴν φιλίαν ἡμῖν βεβαιώσοντος: ὁ γὰρ λόγος ὁ παρὼν καὶ τὸ τῶν ὁμοίων ὀρέγεσθαι πολὺ
πιστότερα τῆς κύλικος ἐκείνης ἣν πίνετε, ἐπεὶ τὰ
γε τοιαῦτα οὐκ ἀνάγκης ἀλλὰ γνώμης δεῖσθαί μοι δοκεῖ.
[p. 206]
Τόξαρις
ἐπαινῶ ταῦτα, καὶ ἤδη ὦμεν φίλοι καὶ ξένοι, ἐμοὶ μὲν σὺ ἐνταῦθα ἐπὶ τῆς Ἑλλάδος, ἐγὼ δὲ σοὶ
εἴ ποτε ἐς τὴν Σκυθίαν ἀφίκοιο.
Μνήσιππος
καὶ μήν, εὖ ἴσθι, οὐκ ἂν ὀκνήσαιμι καὶ ἔτι πορρωτέρω ἐλθεῖν, εἰ μέλλω τοιούτοις φίλοις ἐντεύξεσθαι οἷος σύ, ὦ Τόξαρι, διεφάνης ἡμῖν ἀπὸ τῶν λόγων.
