[9] Ἐστέναξεν ὁ πατὴρ ἀκούσας καὶ ‘οἴχῃ δή μοι, τέκνον: δῆλον γάρ ἐστιν ὅτι Ἑρμοκράτης οὐκ ἂν δοίη σοὶ τὴν αὑτοῦ θυγατέρα τοσούτους ἔχων μνηστῆρας πλουσίους καὶ βασιλεῖς. Οὔκουν οὐδὲ πειρᾶσαι σε δεῖ, μὴ φανερῶς ὑβρισθῶμεν.’ Εἶθ̓ ὁ μὲν πατὴρ παρεμυθεῖτο τὸν παῖδα, τῷ δ̓ ηὔξετο τὸ κακόν, ὥστε μηδ̓ ἐπὶ τὰς συνήθεις προϊέναι διατριβάς.
