It was he who afterwards, on his return from
Arcadia, gave a report of the fine
long orations which he said he had delivered as your spokesman before the Ten
Thousand at Megalopolis in

harm which corrupt statesmen in the pay of Philip were doing not only to their

Next, men of Athens, that it is
absolutely contrary to the national character to ratify such a law as this, I
will also endeavor to show you briefly by an example of our conduct in the past.
The Thirty Tyrants are said to have borrowed money from the Lacedaemonians for
use against the patriots in the Piraeus.In 403 Thrasybulus and
the exiled democrats had occupied the Piraeus and defeated the Thirty, whose government was then
changed to that of the Ten. The Spartans were persuaded by Lysander to lend
the Ten 100 talents, but shortly afterwards Pausanias, the Spartan king, who
was no friend to Lysander, intervened, withdrew the Spartan son from the

Besides all this, if I must say
what I think is right, I would put it in this way. It is not right, Athenians,

Thespiae (Greece) (search for this): speech 19, section 112
For he had told you that Philip would fortify
Thespiae and Plataea, would not destroy the Phocians,
and would put a stop to the aggressions of the Thebans; but Philip has made the
Thebans dangerously strong, he has exterminated the Phocians, and, instead of
fortifying Thespiae and Plataea, he has enslaved Orchomenus and Coronea as well. Could contradiction go further? Yet Aeschines
offered no Thespiae and Plataea, he has enslaved Orchomenus and Coronea as well. Could contradiction go further? Yet Aeschines
offered no opposition; he never opened his lips or made a single objection. That
was bad—but not bad enough for him. He did what no other man in all
Athens did—he spoke in
support of the envoys. Even that miscreant Philocrates durst not go so far as
that—only this man Aeschines. When you raised a clamor, and refused to
