It is surely a most outrageous result that these men
are scheming to bring about, that forsooth we and the women of our family should
inherit the body of Hagnias, when he was dead, and should perform all the proper
rites, as being relatives and nearest of kin, but that Macartatus should claim
the right to possess the estate of the dead Hagnias, though he belongs to the
house of Stratius and is descended from Apolexis, daughter of the Prospaltian
and sister of Macartatus. But this is neither just nor righteous, men of the
jury.
