[68]
Our opponents, then, men of the jury, are men of this stamp; they care nothing
either for the extinction of the house of Hagnias, or for all the rest of their
lawless deeds; men, who, O Zeus and the gods—but why should one
mention the other things relative to them? There would be much indeed to tell
of. But one thing which they have brought to pass is the most lawless and the
most abominable, and most clearly proves that they care for nothing except their
profit.
