"Thessalus, the son of Cimon, of the township of Lacia, lays information that Alcibiades, the son of Clinias, of the township of the Scambonidae, has committed a crime against the goddesses Ceres and Proserpine, by representing in derision the holy mysteries, and showing them to his companions in his own house. Where, being habited in such robes as are used by the chief priest when he shows the holy things, he named himself the chief priest, Polytion the torch-bearer, and Theodorus, of the township of Phegaea, the herald; and saluted the rest of his company as Initiates and Novices. All which was done contrary to the laws and institutions of the Eumolpidae, and the heralds and priests of the temple at Eleusis."

白话
这是对阿尔喀比亚德的正式控告:他涉嫌在自家宅子里戏仿厄琉息斯秘仪,穿祭司袍、自封大祭司,给同伴分配火炬手、传令官等角色,把神圣仪式当玩笑演。控告强调这违反欧摩尔庇代家族和厄琉息斯神庙的法规。核心是:在把宗教视为城邦根基的雅典,亵渎秘仪是严重政治罪。今天看,这提醒我们:拿别人最珍视的信仰或仪式开玩笑,即使私下,也可能引发严重冲突;表达自由要顾及公共底线。
