Demosthenes, Against Evergus and Mnesibulus, section 44 (search)
To prove
that I am speaking the truth in this, I beg all of you who were senators in the
archonship of AgathoclesThis was in 356 B.C. to tell the facts to those who sit
by you, and I will bring before you as witnesses all those whom I have been able
to find who were senators that year.
Depositions
I, you see, men of the jury, showed
myself thus reasonable toward these men. And yet the decree ordered the
confiscation of the property, not only of those who had ship's equipment and did
not return it to the state, but also of anyone who, having such equipment,
refused to sell it; such a scarcity of equipment was there in the city at that
time.Read the decree, please.
Decree
Do not be surprised, Philip, that I am going to begin, not with the discourse which is to be addressed to you and which is presently to be brought to your attention, but with that which I have written about Amphipolis.Amphipolis, a city in Macedonia near the mouth of the Strymon river, conquered and colonized by Athenians in 437 B.C. It was taken by Philip in 358 B.C., but the war with Athens was delayed until Philip seized Potidaea, 356 B.C. For I desire to say a few words, by way of preface, about this question, in order that I may make it clear to you as well as to the rest of the world that it was not in a moment of folly that I undertook to write my address to you, nor because I am under any misapprehension as to the infirmityIsocrates had now passed his ninetieth birthday. which now besets me, but that I was led advisedly and deliberately to this resolution.
