ὅτι δὲ καὶ παμπόλλου πιπράσκουσιν Ἄλεξις ἐν Πυλαίαις φησὶν ι
οὐ δεινὸν ἐστι, προσφάτους μὲν ἂν τύχῃ
πωλῶν τις ἰχθῦς, συναγαγόντα τὰς ὀφρῦς
τοῦτον σκυθρωπάζοντὰ θ᾽ ἡμῖν προσλαλεῖν,
ἐὰν σαπροὺς κομιδῇ δέ, παίζειν καὶ γελᾶν;
τοὐναντίον γὰρ πᾶν ἔδει τούτους ποιεῖν:
τὸν μὲν γελᾶν, τὸν δ᾽ ἕτερον οἰμώζειν μακρά.
