You
must now hear the most outrageous thing which this fellow Lacritus has done; for
it was he who managed the whole affair. When they arrived here they did not put
into your port, but came to anchor in Thieves' Harbor,1 which is outside of the signs marking your
port; and to anchor in Thieves' Harbor is the same as if one were to anchor in
Aegina or Megara; for anyone can sail forth from that harbor to whatever point
he wishes and at any moment he pleases.
1 Some small inlet, which cannot be identified with certainty, used by thieves and smugglers. See Judeich, Topographie von Athen, p. 450.
