ἁπάντων δὲ τούτων ἐπιτετελεσμένων οἱ μὲν ἄλλοι διελέγοντο πρὸς σφᾶς αὐτούς, δῆλον ὅτι περὶ τῶν ἀναγνωσθέντων· ὃν δʼ ἐξ ἀρχῆς μετεπεμψάμεθα σύμβουλον, τὸν Λακεδαιμονίων ἐπαινέτην, πρὸς ὃν πλείω διελέχθην τοῦ δέοντος, σιωπὴν ποιησάμενος καὶ πρὸς ἐμὲ βλέψας ἀπορεῖν ἔφασκεν ὅ τι χρήσηται τοῖς παροῦσιν· οὔτε γὰρ ἀπιστεῖν βούλεσθαι τοῖς ὑπʼ ἐμοῦ λεγομένοις, οὔτε πιστεύειν δύνασθαι παντάπασιν αὐτοῖς.

[234] But when all this demonstration had come to an end, the others present began to talk among themselves, presumably about the discourse which had been read. But the man whom I had sent for at first to obtain his advice (the panegyrist of the Lacedaemonians, to whom I had spoken at greater length than I should), having remained silent in the meantime, turned to me and said that he was in doubt what to do in the present situation, for he desired neither to discredit the words which I had spoken nor was he able to credit them entirely.
