  • καὶ τειχέων μὲν ἐντὸσ οὐ βαίνω πόδα, δυοῖν δ’ ἅμιλλαν ξυντιθεὶσ ἀφικόμην πρὸσ τέρμονασ γῆσ τῆσδ’, ἵν’ ἐκβάλω ποδὶ ἄλλην ἐπ’ αἰᾶν, εἴ μέ τισ γνοίη σκοπῶν, ζητῶν τ’ ἀδελφήν· (Euripides, episode 5:5)
  • ἐχρῆν δὲ καὶ τὸ ἔργον ἔτι φυλάττειν πιστὸν αὐτούσ, οὗ χάριν θεοὺσ ἐνόμισε τοὺσ τέρμονασ ὁ Νόμασ, ἱκανουμένουσ τοῖσ ἑαυτῶν κτήμασι, τῶν δ’ ἀλλοτρίων μήτε βίᾳ σφετεριζομένουσ μηδὲν μήτε δόλῳ. (Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Antiquitates Romanae, book 2, chapter 74 8:2)
