[43a]

Socrates
Why have you come at this time, Crito? Or isn't it still early?

Crito
Yes, very early.

Socrates
About what time?

Crito
Just before dawn.

Socrates
I am surprised that the watchman of the prison was willing to let you in.

Crito
He is used to me by this time, Socrates, because I come here so often, and besides I have done something for him.

Socrates
Have you just come, or some time ago?

Crito
Some little time ago.
