O graue maiorum uirtutis dedecus! Lacones se
numerant, non aestimant. Videamus quanta turba sit,
ut habeat certe Sparta, etiamsi non fortes milites,
at nuntios ueros. Ita ne bello quidem, sed nuntio
uincimur? merito, hercules, omnia contempsit quem
Lacones audire non sustinent. si uincere Xersen
non licet, uidere liceat: uolo scire quid fugiam.
Adhuc non sum ex ulla parte Atheniensium similis,
non muris, non educatione: nihil prius illorum
imitabor quam fugam?
