    Aelian
    Ὅτε ἧκεν ἡ ναῦς ἡ ἐκ Δήλου καὶ ἔδει Σωκράτην ἀποθνῄσκειν, ἀφίκετο εἰς τὸ δεσμωτήριον Ἀπολλόδωρος ὁ τοῦ Σωκράτους ἑταῖρος, χιτῶνά τε αὐτῷ φέρων ἐρίων πολυτελῆ καὶ εὐήτριον καὶ ἱμάτιον τοιοῦτο. καὶ ἠξίου ἐνδύντα αὐτὸν τὸν χιτῶνα καὶ θοἰμάτιον περιβαλόμενον εἶτα οὕτω πιεῖν τὸ φάρμακον. ἔλεγε γὰρ αὐτῷ καλῶν ἐνταφίων μὴ ἀμοιρήσειν, εἰ ἐν αὐτοῖς ἀποθάνοι· καὶ γὰρ οὖν καὶ προκείσεσθαι25 σὺν τῷ κόσμῳ τὸν νεκρὸν οὐ πάνυ τι ἀδόξως.
