And Peisistratos having accepted the proposal and made an agreement on these terms, they contrived with a view to his a device the most simple by far, as I think, that ever was practised, considering at least that it was devised at a time when the Hellenic race had been long marked off from the Barbarian as more skilful and further removed from foolish simplicity, and among the Athenians who are accounted the first of the Hellenes in ability.
Pisistratok proposamena onartu eta baldintza horiekin bat etorri ondoren, itzulirako, nik topatzen dudan egitasmorik tentelena bururatu zitzaien (antzinatik heleniar herria, iaioagoa izateaz gainera, hain tentel burugabea ez delako bereizi baita atzerritik), baldin haiek egitasmo hori jakinduriaz aitzindari omen diren athenastarren artean asmatu bazuten behintzat.
