[311]
What alliance does Athens owe to your exertions? What
auxiliary expedition, what gain of amity or reputation? What embassy or service,
by which the credit of the city has been raised? What project in domestic,
Hellenic, or foreign policy, of which you took charge, has ever been successful?
What war-galleys, or munitions, or docks, or fortifications, or cavalry, do we
owe to you? Of what use in the wide world are you? What public-spirited
assistance have you ever given to rich or to poor? None whatever.
