"In order that I may not say another thing, having surrounded all with honor, he happened to be perplexed by those who were cooperating with him, both from the marketplace and those who hindered the previous administration, accepting and perceiving the state from which it was raised, having gathered his own relatives, he came. And when these were gathered, those who were adorned with human reasoning, I know that they have done something unpleasant, but one, being similar to Heracles of the Amazon, perhaps imagining the same things, rejoicing in disorder, suddenly struck me, whom I also demand to be restrained and to give punishment, in order to be able to do so with freedom and liberty, the gift given to us from divine inspiration, to carry out impeccably, of which it is necessary to not fulfill the time, not being dangerous, due to the envy of the one who is burdened, not being able to withstand such a divine inspiration. For he is inexperienced, even if he is surrounded by such wealth of money, in assistance and reproach, and to our fellow citizens, to show again the same things. For witnesses of my fairness and of our city are citizens, witnesses and those participating in the expedition. But I will keep for myself and for the time of the trial other crimes to be charged against him, for which he would not be able to be sufficient for punishment with one head. And I will be silent, lest again, by gold, he may free himself by corrupting the accusations of such crimes. Having secured all these things, I first and second pray to find an end in the sacred court, not being reluctant to see the court that has been given. Let this be the case, to go out against those who are daring for the city and the land, I call upon the divine and heavenly fortune of those who are..."

ἄπειρος γὰρ [...] εἰ καὶ τοσοῦτον χρημάτων πλοῦτον περιβέβληται [...] ἐπικουρίας πα καὶ ἐπιτιμήσεως καὶ τοῖς ἡμετέροις πολίταις τὰ αὐτὰ πάλιν ἐνδείξασθαι.

So that I may not say the other thing, having encompassed everything together with honor [...]
He happened, but being at a loss due to those assisting him, both from the marketplace and from those [...] who prevented [...]
accepting the previous administration and perceiving from what cause the faction arose, having gathered his own relatives, he advanced.
When these had been gathered, those who were adorned with human reason, I know indeed that they acted unpleasantly; but a certain Herakleon, resembling Amazonios, perhaps imagining the same things, delighting in disorder, suddenly struck me. I testify that he should be restrained and brought to justice, so that I may freely and without hindrance fulfill blamelessly the task granted to us by divine will, whose necessary and not risk-free time I have not fulfilled, envy being burdened and powerless against such divine will.
For he is inexperienced [...] even if he has surrounded himself with such great wealth of money [...] assistance and rebuke, and to demonstrate again the same things to our fellow citizens.
Witnesses of my fairness are the citizens of our city, and also those involved in public affairs are witnesses of the attack.
I will reserve for myself at the proper time other accusations to attach to him, for which not even one head would suffice for punishment.
And I will remain silent lest he again corrupt the proofs of such accusations with gold and free himself.
Having secured all these things, first and second, I pray to find an end in the pure and celebrated court [...] the court has rendered [...] may this happen [...] to send forth assistants [...] against those daring the undareable, fighting for city and country [...]
I adjure the divine and heavenly fortune of those [...] these things [...] security [...] to leave behind [...] of justice [...]
