[214]
will you, men of
Athens, after giving him your
full franchise and honoring him with other distinctions,—will you
bestow upon him this immunity into the bargain? For what? What ships has he

city has he captured and handed over to you? What perils has he encountered in
your defence? When has he chosen your enemies as his own? No man can tell you.
