Demosthenes, On the False Embassy, section 273 (search)
In my judgement, men of Athens,
you will do well, not to emulate your forefathers in some one respect alone, but
to follow their conduct step by step. I am sure you have all heard the story of
their treatment of Callias, son of Hipponicus, who negotiated the celebrated
peace470 B.C.,
after the battle of Eurymedon. under which the King of Persia was not to approach within a day's ride
of the coast, nor sail with a ship of war between the Chelidonian islands and
the Blue Rocks. At the inquiry into his conduct they came near to putting him to
death, and mulcted him in fifty talents, because he was said to have taken
bribes on embassy.
