μηκέτι τονθορύζετε, ὦ θεοί, μηδὲ κατὰ γωνίας
συστρεφόμενοι πρὸς οὖς ^ ἀλλήλοις κοινολογεῖσθε, ἀγανακτοῦντες εἰ πολλοὶ ἀνάξιοι
μετέχουσιν ἡμῖν τοῦ συμποσίου, ἀλλ᾽ ἐπείπερ ἀποδέδοται περὶ τούτων ἐκκλησία, λεγέτω ἕκαστος
ἐς τὸ φανερὸν τὰ δοκοῦντὰ οἱ καὶ κατηγορείτω.
σὺ δὲ κήρυττε, ὦ Ἑρμῆ, τὸ κήρυγμα τὸ ἐκ τοῦ
νόμου,
Ἑρμῆς
ἄκουε, σίγα. τίς ἀγορεύειν βούλεται τῶν τελείων θεῶν οἷς ἔξεστιν ; ἡ δὲ σκέψις περὶ τῶν μετοίκων καὶ ξένων.
Μῶμος
ἐγὼ ὁ Μῶμος, ὦ Ζεῦ, εἴ μοι ἐπιτρέψειας εἰπεῖν.
Ζεύς
τὸ κήρυγμα ἤδη ἐφίησιν ὥστε οὐδὲν ἐμοῦ δεήσει.^
