Thucydides 2.81.4 (etc.).
[2] Adler assigns this to
Theopompus the comic poet, while noting that it was not included in Kock's fragments. It is in fact usually attributed to his namesake the historian (FGrH 115 F309), though Theodoridis on
Photius s.v. notes that Erbse and Mette still prefer comedy.
