Translation
A lame and dishonored and unlearned man. Aristophanes [writes]: "examine, each of you, what he will gain, as the community is tossed about just like Aisimos."
Greek original · Adler’s text
Αἴσιμος· ὁ χωλὸς καὶ ἄτιμος καὶ ἀμαθής. Ἀριστοφάνης· σκοπεῖσθ' ἕκαστος ὅ τι κερδανεῖ· τὸ δὲ κοινόν, ὥσπερ Αἴσιμος κυλίνδεται.
