Atque ego omnia obiecta, seu vera seu falsa sunt, non negabo, sed perinde atque si facta sint fatebor, ut omnis ista multitudo, quae plurima undique ad audiendum convenit, aperte intellegat nihil in philosophos non modo vere dici, sed ne falso quidem posse confingi, quod non ex innocentiae fiducia, quamvis liceat negare, tamen potius habeant defendere.
And indeed I will not deny but rather will admit every one of the charges, whether true or false, just as if they were facts. In that way, all this crowd, which has come streaming from all sides to listen, may clearly see that nothing can be truthfully alleged against philosophers, or indeed falsely fabricated, that their trust in their own innocence would not allow them to defend, even though they might deny them.
