Demosthenes, Against Aristogiton 1, section 56 (search)
All this is bad
enough, Heaven knows; but you shall hear another dreadful performance. On the
occasion when he broke prison and ran away, he visited a certain woman named
Zobia, with whom he had probably
cohabited at one time. She kept him in safe hiding during the first few days,
when the police were searching and advertising for him, and then she gave him
eight drachmas journey-money and a tunic and a cloak and packed him off to
Megara.
Demosthenes, Against Aphobus, section 3 (search)
But, as it is, the precise
contrary is the truth. This man with his co-trustees has robbed me of my entire
patrimony, and, even after being clearly convicted in your court, he does not
consider himself obliged to do anything reasonable. On the contrary he has
dispersed his property, giving his farm-buildings to Aesius and his farm to
Onetor, against whom he has forced me to engage in a troublesome lawsuit. He
himself stripped the house of its furniture, took away the slaves, destroyed the
wine-vat, tore off the doors, and all but set fire to the house itself; then he
made off to Megara, where he has
settled and paid the alien's tax. You would, therefore, with better ground
loathe this man for deeds like these, than judge me guilty of undue severity.
