I will not put up with [it]

Translation
Some consider this [sc. grammatical form, a)nasxh/somai ] as alien; but Demosthenes, too, used it it in the [speech] Against Aristocrates.1 So [it is] not necessary to say only a)ne/comai .
Greek original · Adler’s text
Οὐκ ἀνασχήσομαι· τινὲς τοῦτο ὡς ἔκφυλον νομίζουσιν· ἐχρήσατο δὲ αὐτῷ καὶ Δημοσθένης ἐν τῷ κατὰ Ἀριστοκράτους. οὐ δεῖ οὖν μόνον λέγειν ἀνέξομαι.

Notes (1)
- From the scholia to Aristophanes, Acharnians 297, where the headword phrase occurs (web address 1); on whether this future middle form from
a)ne/xw is legitimate Attic. - 1Not in fact extant in that speech (Demosthenes 23), nor (as the scholion) the Against Timocrates (no.24), nor anywhere else in Demosthenes. (Some editors nevertheless register it as an unplaced Demosthenic fragment.) ↩
