To show you, then, that these men
are the basest and most depraved of all Philip's visitors, private as well as
official,—yes, of all of them,—let me tell you a trifling
story that has nothing to do with the embassy. After Philip had taken Olynthus, he was holding Olympian
games,Not the great Olympian Games of
Elis, but a Macedonian
festival held at Dium. The date is probably the spring of 347 B.C. and had invited all sorts of artists to the
religious celebration and the festiv

When the Lacedaemonians, men of Athens, had the supremacy of land and sea, and were holding
with governors and garrisons all the frontiers of Attica, Euboea,
Tanagra, all Boeotia, Megara, Aegina,
Ceos, and the other islands, for at
that time Athens had no ships and no
walls, you marched out to Haliartus,Haliartus,
395 B.C.; Corinth, 394 B.C.; Decelean war,
the last period, 4l3-404, of the Peloponnesian war, when the Spartans held
the fortified position of Decelea in Attica. and again a few days later to Corinth. The Athenians of those days had
good reason to bear malice against the Corinthians and the Thebans for their
conduct during the Decelean War; but they bore no malice whatever.

Again,
Athenians, it is not only the men who, in a private capacity, chose to benefit
you and to offer their services on those important occasions that have been
described a little while ago by Phormio and mentioned by me just
now—it is not only these men that you must be careful not to wrong,
but many others also, who drew whole states, their own native cities, into
alliance with us in the war against the Lacedaemonians,The so-called Corinthian War, 395-387 B.C. thus furthering by word and deed the
interests of your city

By the terms
of this decree, men of Athens, you
condemned to death the ambassadors named. One of them was Epicrates, who, as I
am informed by persons older than myself, was an honest, useful, and popular
politician, and one of the men who marched from Peiraeus and restored the
democracy.restored the democracy: under
Thrasybulus [Dem. 19.280],
403 B.C. (Grote, ch.
65.). No such consideration availed him; and that was right,
for a man who accepts so important a mission is not to be virtuous by halves. He
must not use the public confidence he has earned as an opportunity for knavery;
his duty is simply to do you no wilful wrong at a

In the first place, then, will you not wrong the
Thasian supporters of Ecphantus, if you revoke their immunity—I mean
the men who handed over Thasos to you
by expelling the armed garrison of the Lacedaemonians and admitting
Thrasybulus,408-407 B.C. There is some discrepancy as to the
date between our two authorities, Xenophon and Diodorus, neither of whom
mentions Ecphantus, presumably a democratic leader in Thasos. and thus, by bringing their
own country on to your side, were the means of winning for you the alliance of
the district bordering on Thrace?

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.
