[1050] ὁ καιρὸς for the art., cp. Plat. Axioch. 364b “νῦν ὁ καιρὸς ἐνδείξασθαι τὴν ἀεὶ θρυλουμένην πρὸς σοῦ σοφίαν. —” ηὑρῆσθαι: Bellermann (objecting to the tense) reads εὑρέσθαι, citing Soph. Aj. 1023 (where, as usual, the aor. midd. = “to gain ”): but the perf. is right, and forcible, here; it means, “to be discovered once for all. ” For the form, cp. 546 n. Isoc. 15.295 “τῶν δυναμένων λέγειν ἢ παιδεύειν ἡ πόλις ἡμῶν δοκεῖ γεγενῆσθαι διδάσκαλος,” to be the established teacher.
