Translation:
"[Even if now I myself] -- because I wish my father, having been freed from these early-rising-blackmailing-litigating-hardgoing ways, to live a gentleman's life like Morychos -- stand accused of doing these things because I am a conspirator and in favour of tyranny". Aristophanes [says this].
