Examples

  • ὠνείδισται δέ μοι καὶ ἡ τῶν κληρούχων εἰσ Οὐολούσκουσ ἐκπομπή, ὅτι γῆν πολλὴν καὶ ἀγαθὴν οὐ τοῖσ πατρικίοισ οὐδὲ τοῖσ ἱππεῦσιν ἐχαρισάμην, ἀλλὰ τοῖσ ἀπόροισ ὑμῶν διένειμα· (Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Antiquitates Romanae, Books IV-VI, book 6, chapter 44 2:2)
  • καὶ δὴ καὶ τό γε τέλοσ, ἂν πᾶσα ἀπορία περὶ τὴν ἀνίσωσιν τῶν πεντακισχιλίων καὶ τετταράκοντα οἴκων γίγνηται, ἐπίχυσισ δὲ ὑπερβάλλουσα ἡμῖν πολιτῶν διὰ φιλοφροσύνην τὴν τῶν συνοικούντων ἀλλήλοισ συμβαίνῃ καὶ ἀπορῶμεν, τὸ παλαιόν που ὑπάρχει μηχάνημα, ὃ πολλάκισ εἴπομεν, ἐκπομπὴ ἀποικιῶν, φίλη γιγνομένη παρὰ φίλων, ὧν ἂν ἐπιτήδειον εἶναι δοκῇ. (Plato, Laws, book 5 101:1)
