[3] Diognides and Antidorus the metic are impeached on a charge of hiring out flute-girls at a higher price than that fixed by law, Agasicles of Piraeus1 because he was registered in Halimus, and Euxenippus because of the dreams which he claims to have had; though surely not one of these charges has anything to do with the impeachment law.

1 Agasicles, according to Harpocration and Suidas （sv. Ἀγασικλῆς）, though an alien, bribed the people of Halimus to enroll him in their deme. The former adds that Dinarchus wrote a speech prosecuting him for this. See Din. Fr. 7.
