ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐπιορκῶ, οὐδ᾽ ἂν Κόνων διαρραγῇ. ἀξιῶ τοίνυν ὑμᾶς, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, πάνθ᾽ ὅσ᾽ ἐστὶν δίκαι᾽ ἐπιδείξαντος ἐμοῦ καὶ πίστιν προσθέντος ὑμῖν, ὥσπερ ἂν αὐτὸς ἕκαστος παθὼν τὸν πεποιηκότ᾽ ἐμίσει, οὕτως ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ πρὸς Κόνωνα τουτονὶ τὴν ὀργὴν ἔχειν, καὶ μὴ νομίζειν ἴδιον τῶν τοιούτων μηδὲν ὃ κἂν ἄλλῳ τυχὸν συμβαίη, ἀλλ᾽ ἐφ᾽ ὅτου ποτ᾽ ἂν συμβῇ, βοηθεῖν καὶ τὰ δίκαι᾽ ἀποδιδόναι, καὶ μισεῖν τοὺς πρὸ μὲν τῶν ἁμαρτημάτων θρασεῖς καὶ προπετεῖς, ἐν δὲ τῷ δίκην ὑπέχειν ἀναισχύντους καὶ πονηροὺς καὶ μήτε δόξης μήτ᾽ ἔθους μήτ᾽ ἄλλου μηδενὸς φροντίζοντας πρὸς τὸ μὴ δοῦναι δίκην.
