  • τε καὶ ἰδίων ἀγώνων, αὐτοῦ λέγοντοσ ἐκείνου τὰ ἑαυτοῦ μετὰ τῆσ ἀξιώσεωσ, ἧσ εἶχε, τὴν αὐτοπάθειαν καὶ τὸ παράστημα τῆσ ψυχῆσ ἀποδεικνυμένου, κοσμοῦντοσ ἅπαντα καὶ χρωματίζοντοσ τῇ πρεπούσῃ ὑποκρίσει, ἧσ δεινότατοσ ἀσκητὴσ ἐγένετο, ὡσ ἅπαντέσ τε ὁμολογοῦσι καὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν ἰδεῖν ἔστι τῶν λόγων, ὧν ἄρτι προηνεγκάμην, οὓσ οὐκ ἔνι τῷ βουλομένῳ ἐν ἡδονῇ ὡσ ἀνάγνωσμα διελθεῖν, ἀλλ’ αὐτοὶ διδάσκουσι, πῶσ αὐτοὺσ ὑποκρίνεσθαι δεῖ, νῦν μὲν εἰρωνευόμενον, νῦν δὲ ἀγανακτοῦντα, νῦν δὲ νεμεσῶντα, δεδιττόμενόν τε αὖ καὶ θεραπεύοντα καὶ νουθετοῦντα καὶ παρορμῶντα καὶ πάνθ’, ἃ βούλεται ποιεῖν ἡ λέξισ, ἀποδεικνύμενον ἐπὶ τῆσ προφορᾶσ. (Dionysius of Halicarnassus, De Demosthene, chapter 22 2:1)
