Canonical reference 362
Ancient Greek
perseus-plato-protagoras-grc
ΣΩ. ἀλλʼ, ἦν δʼ ἐγώ, οὕτω χρὴ ποιεῖν, εἴ σοι δοκεῖ. καὶ γὰρ ἐμοὶ οἷπερ ἔφην ἰέναι πάλαι ὥρα, ἀλλὰ Καλλίᾳ τῷ καλῷ χαριζόμενος παρέμεινα. ταῦτʼ εἰπόντες καὶ ἀκούσαντες ἀπῇμεν.
English
Benjamin Jowett · perseus-plato-protagoras-en
Soc. I quite agree, said I, if you think so: for I was long ago due to be where I told you I was going; I stayed merely to oblige our excellent Callias. Here our colloquy ended, and each went his way.

Soc. Je suis tout à fait d’accord, dis-je, si tel est ton avis. Car j’aurais dû depuis longtemps déjà me trouver là où je t’avais dit que j’allais. Je ne suis resté que pour complaire à notre excellent Callias. Ainsi prit fin notre entretien, et chacun partit de son côté.
