Λυκῖνος

ἐξ ἀγορᾶς μὲν ἥκω σοι, ὦ Πάμφιλε· τοῦ γέλωτος δὲ αὐτίκα κοινωνὸν ποιήσομαί σε, ἢν ἀκούσῃς οἵᾳ δίκῃ δικαζομένῃ παρεγενόμην, φιλοσόφων πρὸς ἀλλήλους ἐριζόντων.

Πάμφιλος

καὶ τοῦτο μὲν ὡς ἀληθῶς γελοῖον λέγεις, τὸ φιλοσοφοῦντας δικάζεσθαι πρὸς ἀλλήλους, δέον, εἰ καί τι μέγα εἴη, κατʼ εἰρήνην ἐν σφίσι διαλύεσθαι τὰ ἐγκλήματα.

PAMPHILUS

Where have you been, Lycinus, and what are you laughing at, I should like to know, as you come? Of course, you are always in a good humour, but this appears to me to be something out of the ordinary, as you cannot restrain your laughter over it.

LYCINUS

I have been in the Agora, I’d have you know, Pamphilus; and I shall make you share my laughter at once if you let me tell you what sort of case has been tried in my presence, between philosophers wrangling with each other.

PAMPHILUS

Well, what you have already said is laughable, in all truth, that followers of philosophy should have it out with one another at law, when they ought, even if it should be something of importance, to settle their complaints peaceably among themselves.
