[422ξ]
προσφερόμενον ἀναστρέφοντα κρούειν, καὶ τοῦτο ποιοῖ πολλάκις ἐν ἡλίῳ τε καὶ πνίγει; ἆρά γε οὐ καὶ πλείους χειρώσαιτ᾽ ἂν τοιούτους ὁ τοιοῦτος;ἀμέλει, ἔφη, οὐδὲν ἂν γένοιτο θαυμαστόν.ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ οἴει πυκτικῆς πλέον μετέχειν τοὺς πλουσίους ἐπιστήμῃ τε καὶ ἐμπειρίᾳ ἢ πολεμικῆς;ἔγωγ᾽, ἔφη.ῥᾳδίως ἄρα ἡμῖν οἱ ἀθληταὶ ἐκ τῶν εἰκότων διπλασίοις τε καὶ τριπλασίοις αὑτῶν μαχοῦνται.συγχωρήσομαί σοι, ἔφη: δοκεῖς γάρ μοι ὀρθῶς λέγειν.
