Demosthenes goes round none the less
maligning the council and telling the same stories about himself with which he
will probably try to mislead you presently. “I made the Thebans your
allies.”In making this claim
Demosthenes was referring to events just before the battle of Chaeronea when he won Thebes over to Athens by offering her more liberal
terms than Philip. For his defence of this policy see Dem. 18.153 sq. No, Demosthenes, you impaired the common
interest of both our states. “I brought everyone into line at
Chaeronea.” On the
contrary you yourself were the only one to leave the line at Chaeronea.The
charge of cowardice in battle is often brought against Demosthenes by
Aeschines (e.g. Aeschin.
3.175); it is mentioned by Plutarch

was made an Athenian citizen for his services as a soldier (Dem. 23.151). He went to Persia in 335
B.C., having been banished from Athens on the orders of Alexander (Arr. 1.10.6), and after being well

peril to win safety for you and every Greek. Demosthenes went round the market
making speeches and associating himself with the project. So completely did
fortune wreck this plan that it turned out in just the opposite way to what was

to raise
such another force as we had in the time of Agis,While Alexander was in the East, Agis the Third of Sparta rose against Macedon with the help of Darius in 333 B.C. In 331 he headed an army raised by various
Greek states but was refused the support of Athens, on the advice of Demosthenes. Defeated near
Megalopolis by
Antipater he was killed in battle (Dio. Sic.
17.48 and Dio. Sic.
17.62). when the Spartans took the field together and
Achaeans and men of Elis were taking
their part in the campaign with ten thousand mercenaries also; when Alexander
was in India,Alexander was, in fact, in Persia. according to report, and the whole of
Greece, owing to the traitors in
every city, was dissatisfied with the existing state of things and h

and walked about dangling it from his finger ends, living in
luxury during the city's misfortunes, travelling down the road to the Piraeus in a litter and reproaching the
needy for their poverty. Is this man then going to prove useful to you on future
occasions, when he has let slip every opportunity in the past? By our lady
Athena and Zeus the Savior, I could wish that the enemies of Athens had lighted upon counsellors and
leaders like him and never better.
