  • ἀποθανόντων δὲ ἐκείνων, οἳ τὸ τῆσ στάσεωσ κεφάλαιον ἦσαν, καὶ τῶν ὑπολοίπων εἴ τινα λείψανα ἔστιν, οὐ τῇ πολιτείᾳ πολεμούντων, ἀλλὰ ὑμᾶσ δεδιότων, ἐπὶ δὲ τούτῳ καὶ τῆσ πενταετίασ παριούσησ, ἀνακῦψαι τὰσ ἀρχὰσ ἐπὶ τὰ πάτρια ἠξίουν, οὐ προτιμῶν οὐδὲ τὸν ἀδελφὸν τῆσ πατρίδοσ, ἀλλ’ ἐλπίζων μὲν ἐπανελθόντα πείσειν ἑκόντα, ἐπειγόμενοσ δὲ ἐπὶ τῆσ ἐμῆσ ἀρχῆσ γενέσθαι.
