[182]
ἴστε γὰρ δήπου τοῦτο, οἱ μὲν ἀφιγμένοι σαφῶς, οἱ δ᾽ ἄλλοι τούτων ἀκούοντες, ὅτι τῆς Καρδιανῶν πόλεως ἐχούσης ὡς ἔχει, εἰ γενήσεται τὰ πρὸς τοὺς Θρᾷκας εὐτρεπῆ τῷ Κερσοβλέπτῃ, παρ᾽ ἡμέραν ἔξεστιν αὐτῷ βαδίζειν ἐπὶ Χερρόνησον ἀσφαλῶς. ὥσπερ γὰρ Χαλκὶς τῷ τόπῳ τῆς Εὐβοίας πρὸς τῆς Βοιωτίας κεῖται, οὕτω Χερρονήσου κεῖται πρὸς τῆς Θρᾴκης ἡ Καρδιανῶν πόλις. ἣν ὃν ἔχει τόπον ὅστις οἶδεν ὑμῶν, οὐδ᾽ ἐκεῖν᾽ ἀγνοεῖ, τίνος εἵνεκα καιροῦ περιπεποίηται καὶ διεσπούδασται μὴ λαβεῖν ὑμᾶς.
