====== Chytron ====== ===== Julian, Oration 7.18 =====
First arrived Asclepiades, then Serenianus, then **Chytron**, then a tall boy with yellow hair I don't know his name then you, and with you all twice as many more. And now, my good sirs, what good has come from your journey? What city or individual has had any experience of your alleged freedom of speech? Was it not foolish of you to choose in the first place to make this journey to an Emperor who did not even wish to set eyes you? And when you had arrived, did you not behave even more foolishly and ignorantly and insanely in flattering and barking at me in the same breath, and offering me your books, and moreover imploring that they should be taken to me? I do not believe that any one of you ever visited a philosopher's school as diligently as you did my secretary: in fact the entrance to the Palace stood for you in place of the Academy and the Lyceum and the Portico. \\ [[http://archive.org/stream/worksofemperorju02juliuoft/worksofemperorju02juliuoft_djvu.txt|Source]]
