σύ μέν γάρ, οὐδ’ ἄν ἐκ τρίτης ἐγὼ

υντρός φανῶ _τρίδουλος_, ἐκφανεῖ κακή.

Thus——“Were I descended from a race of slaves, ’twould not dishonour

thee.”

1123.——ἦ _δοῦλος_, οὐκ ὠνητός, ἀλλ’ οἴκοι τραφείς.

Thus——“Although I am a slave, yet I was not purchased, but born and

reared up in his house.”

1168.——ἦν _δοῦλος_, ἤ κείνου τις ἐγγενὴς γεγώς;

Thus—“Was he the son of a slave; if not, of whom?”
