χρόνον πέμψας τὸν ὑπηρέτην ὡς αὐτοὺς ἐκέλευσεν ἐπὶ τὴν ἀρχὴν ἀκολουθεῖν καὶ τὴν βουλὴν συγκαλεῖν. ἐπεὶ δὲ τῶν ῥαβδούχων τις ἀπήλασε τὸν ὑπηρέτην κελευσθεὶς ὑπὸ τῶν ὑπάτων, ἀγανακτήσας ὁ Ἰκίλλιος καὶ οἱ συνάρχοντες αὐτοῦ, συνέλαβον τὸν ῥαβδοῦχον καὶ ἀπῆγον ὡς ῥίψοντες κατὰ τῆς πέτρας. [4] οἱ δὲ ὕπατοι βιάσασθαι μὲν ἢ τὸν ἀγόμενον ἀφελέσθαι, καίτοι δεινὰ δοκοῦντες ὑβρίσθαι, ἀδύνατοι ἦσαν, ἐπεκαλοῦντο δὲ τὴν ἐκ τῶν ἄλλων δημάρχων βοήθειαν. οὐθὲν γὰρ τῶν πραττομένων ὑπὸ τῆς ἀρχῆς ἐκείνης ἐπισχεῖν ἢ κωλῦσαι τῶν ἄλλων τινὶ ἔξεστιν, ἀλλ᾽ [5] ἑτέρου δημάρχου τοῦτ᾽ ἐστὶ τὸ κράτος. τοῖς δ᾽ ἄρα πᾶσιν ἦν ταῦτα κατ᾽ ἀρχὰς δεδογμένα μήτ᾽ εἰσηγήσασθαί τινα καινὸν πολίτευμα μηθὲν ἐφ᾽ ἑαυτοῦ βαλόμενον, ἐὰν μὴ πᾶσι τὸ αὐτὸ δοκῇ, μήτε ἐναντιωθῆναί τινα τοῖς πραττομένοις, ὅσ᾽ ἂν αἱ πλείους γνῶμαι
