Σολοικιστής

Καὶ ταῦτα ἱκανῶς διελήλυθας, καὶ δὴ λέγε· οὕτω γάρ σε δεῖ προδιδάσκειν.

Λυκῖνος

Ἑτέρως γὰρ λέγοντος οὐ κατανοεῖς; οὐκ οἶσθα οἷόν ἐστι ξυγγραφεὺς ἀνήρ;

Σολοικιστής

Πάνυ οἶδα νῦν γέ σου ἀκούσας ταῦτα λέγοντος.

Λυκῖνος

Ἐπεὶ καὶ τὸ καταδουλοῦν σὺ μὲν ἴσως ταὐτὸν τῷ καταδουλοῦσθαι νενόμικας, ἐγὼ δὲ οἶδα διαφορὰν οὐκ ὀλίγην ἔχον.

Σολοικιστής

Τίνα ταύτην;

Λυκῖνος

Ὅτι τὸ μὲν ἑτέρῳ τὸ καταδουλοῦν, τὸ δ’ ἑαυτῷ γίγνεται.

Σολοικιστής

Καλῶς λέγεις.

Λυκῖνος

Καὶ ἄλλα δέ σοι πολλὰ ὑπάρχει μανθάνειν, εἴπερ μὴ αὐτὸς εἰδέναι οὐκ εἰδὼς δόξεις.

Σολοικιστής

Ἀλλ’ οὐκ ἂν δόξαιμι.

Λυκῖνος

Οὐκοῦν τὰ λοιπὰ ἐσαῦθις ἀναβαλώμεθα, νῦν δὲ διαλύσωμεν τὸν διάλογον.

Purist

That is clear enough; go on; this is the way to teach.

Lycinus

Or the only way you can learn? Well, do you know what a historian is? ¹

Purist

Oh, yes, I quite see, after your lucid explanation.

Lycinus

Now I daresay you think servility and servitude are the same; but I am aware of a considerable difference between them.

Purist

Namely—?

Lycinus

The first depends on yourself, the other on some one else.

Purist

Quite right.

Lycinus

Oh, you will pick up all sorts of information, if you give up thinking you know more than you do.

Purist

I give it up from this moment.

Lycinus

Then we will break off for the present, and take the rest another time H. and
