Why, men of
Athens, what is there which a
man of this stamp is not capable of doing, who, after receiving letters, did not
deliver them in due and proper course? Or how can you fail to see that his own
acts prove his guilt? Surely （O Earth and the Gods） when he

fitting that he should make it a much talked of event on the exchange and to
invite all men to be present; but especially the servant and partner of
Chrysippus.
