Περὶ τῆς παραπρεσβείας

Περὶ τῆς παραπρεσβείας Aeschines
149 Philochares yonder, our eldest brother, a man not of ignoble pursuits, as you slanderously assert,For Demosthenes’ taunts as to the brothers of Aeschines and those of his wife, see his speech Dem. 19.237 and 287. but a frequenter of the gymnasia, a one-time comrade of Iphicrates in the field, and a general now for the past three years, has come to beg you to save me. Our youngest brother, too, Aphobetus yonder, who as ambassador to the king of Persia has served you to the credit of the city, who administered your revenues honestly and well when you called him to the department of the treasury, who has gotten him children lawfully—not by putting his wife in Cnosion’s bed, as you, Demosthenes, did yours—he also is here, despite your slanders ;for defamation goes no further than the ears.
