[304]
Was it not Aeschines? Who persuaded you
to send embassies almost as far as the Red
Sea, declaring that Greece was the object of Philip's designs, and that it was your
duty to anticipate the danger and not be disloyal to the Hellenic cause? Was it
not Eubulus who proposed the decree, and the defendant Aeschines who went as
ambassador to the Peloponnesus? What he
said there after his arrival, either in conversation or in public speeches, is
best known to himself: what he reported on his return I am sure you have not
forgotten.
