[2]
For my
father, men of the jury, whose wishes have guided me in all that I have done,
declared to all his acquaintances what a misfortune it would be if I should let
slip the time in which, thanks to his being still alive,1 I have the right to avenge
myself on this man, and should make an excuse of my inexperience and my youth,
and so look idly on while my father has been deprived of everything, and while
Theocrines continues to write indictments contrary to the laws and to harass
many citizens with baseless and malicious actions, when he has no right to do
so.
