Περὶ τῆς παραπρεσβείας Aeschines
160 Consider, then, one by one, fellow citizens, the possible grounds for my prosecution: what decree have I proposed, what law have I repealed, what law have I kept from being passed, what covenant have I made in the name of the city, what vote as to the peace have I annulled, what have I added to the terms of peace that you did not vote?
161 The peace failed to please some of our public men. Then ought they not to have opposed it at the time, instead of putting me on trial now? Certain men who were getting rich out of the war from your war-taxes and the revenues of the state, have now been stopped; for peace does not feed laziness. Shall those, then, who are not wronged, but are themselves wronging the city, punish the man who was sponsor for the peace,Philocrates, the prime mover in the peace had already gone into banishment, afraid to stand trial.1 and will you, who are benefited by it, leave in the lurch men who have proved themselves useful to the commonwealth?
