ὅλων ἄρχοντας ἢ πράξεως λαμπρᾶς, τοῖς βασιλεῦσι

καὶ κόσμος ἐπιτιθεμένη: τῶν μὲν γὰρ ἄλλων
ὀνομάτων τε καὶ ἔργων, ὁπόσα τῆς παλαιᾶς
ἐκείνης πολιτείας διασώζει τινὰ φαύλην καὶ
ἀμυδρὰν εἰκόνα, ἢ παντάπασιν ὑπεριδόντες διὰ
τὴν ἰσχὺν κατέγνωσαν, ἢ προσιέμενοί γε διὰ
βίου καρποῦνται τὰς ἐπωνυμίας: μόνης δέ, οἶμαι,
ταύτης οὔτε τὴν ἀρχὴν ὑπερεῖδον, χαίρουσί
