This man Eubulides, men of Athens, as many of you know, indicted the sister of
Lacedaemonius for impiety, but did not receive a fifth part of the votes.1 It is because in that trial I gave testimony
that was true but unfavorable to him that he hates me and makes me the object of
his attacks. Being a member of the senate, men of the jury, with power to
administer the oath and being custodian of the documents on the basis of which
he convened the demesmen, what does he do?
