There is no great difficulty in the passage; certainly it is not made clearer by any proposed alteration. He was going to say ἐγὼ καὶ περὶ Πασικλέους ἐρῶ, but he lost himself, as it were, in the maze of the intervening clauses. P.] 84. παραπεπτωκώς.] ‘Courting,' 'flattering.' As this verb does not seem to occur elsewhere in this sense (which indeed is not noticed in Liddell & Scott) H. Wolf and Dobree would prefer ὑποπεπτωκώς as in §§ 63, 65; but the text is supported by the mss and by Harpocration, who says: ἀντὶ τοῦ ὑποπεπτωκώς. Δημοσθένης ἐν τῷ κατὰ Στεφάνου.—παραπεπτωκώς implies subservience of a less abject and cringing form than ὑποπεπτωκώς, which would be too strong a word for this context. ‘ὑποπίπτειν est ad pedes alicuius, παραπίπτειν ad latus alicuius succumbere' (Lortzing, Apoll., p. 90). Πασικλέα.] The silence of Pasicles is a point brought against Apoll. in Or. 36 § 22. The insinuation in the text seems quite gratuitous, and its indelicacy forms a singular contrast to the plaintiff's affectation of reserve in referring to his mother in the earlier part of the speech (§ 3 and § 27). § 85. Farewell, then, to my so-called brother; while I turn to my true friends, the jury, and appeal to them not to allow me to be laughed to scorn by my own servants and by those who cringe to them, like Stephanus.-My father was a great benefactor to the state, and it would hardly be creditable to yourselves that his son should suffer wrong. 85. δέομαι... ἀντιβολώ ... ἱκε τεύω.] Cf. § 1. τοῖς τούτου κόλαξιν] i. e.

Book Iv. § 17, notes 447-454. ἐτριηράρχησε τριηραρχίας.] Αt first sight this is an exception to the usual idiom, whereby a cognate accusative is not used after a verb except with an adjective. But the clause πέντε τριηρεῖς ἐθελοντὴς ἐπιδούς is virtually an adjectival phrase descriptive of the nature of the trierarchies. Thus, in English we do not say 'he fought a fight' by itself, but 'he has fought a good fight,' or, he fought a fight and won the day,' where the additional clause in italics is equivalent to an adj. to the cognate accusative 'fight.' (See esp. Mayor's note on dicta dicere and servitutem serviunt Cic. Phil. II. § 42 where the absence of the adj. is explained by the sense of the acc. being different from that of the governing verb and therefore cognate in form alone.) Speciose Reiskius € ἐτριηράρο χησε τριηραρχίας i.e. πέντε Do bree. [Compare ἀρχὴν ἄρξαι. Here we should have expected either ἐτριηράρχησεν αὐτῶν, Οι ἐτρ. τὰς τριηραρχίας.] On the trierarchal services of Apollodorus, see note on Or. 36 § 41. §§ 86-end. Time would not suffice to tell of all the outrages inflicted on me; but you may form some notion of their enormity if each one of you would just think of the slave he left at home and imagine himself treated by him as I have been treated by Phormio. Whatever satisfaction each of you would claim under such circumstances, you will allow me to have a right to now, and I therefore ask you for the sake of the laws and of your solemn oaths to establish a signal precedent by the punishment of the man who by his false evidence robbed me of that satisfaction. Remember all that you have heard on our side and meet my opponents' suggestions at every point. If they deny that they are responsible for all the details of their deposition, ask them What stands in the document?' 'Why did not Stephanus erase the clause?' If they say that a will has been deposed to by a guardian, by a ward, and by one who has it in his keeping; then ask these three witnesses 'What will?' 'what are its terms' for not one of the three αν νὸν ἂν τὸ ὕδωρ ὁρῶ μοι. ὡς οὖν μάλιστ ̓ ἂν ἅπαντας ὑμᾶς ἡγοῦμαι γνῶναι τὴν ὑπερβολὴν ὧν ἠδικήμεθ ̓ ἡμεῖς, φράσω· εἰ σκέψαιτο πρὸς ἑαυτὸν ἕκαστος ὑμῶν τίν' οἴκοι κατέλιπεν οἰκέτην, εἶθ ̓ ὑπὸ τούτου πεπονθόθ ̓ ἑαυτὸν θείη ταῦθ ̓ ἅπερ ἡμεῖς ὑπὸ τούτου. μὴ γὰρ εἰ Σύρος ἢ Μάνης ἢ τίς ἕκαστος ἐκείνων, οὗτος δὲ Φορμίων· ἀλλὰ τὸ πρᾶγμα τὸ αὐτό· δοῦλοι μὲν ἐκεῖνοι, δοῦλος δ ̓ οὗτος ἦν, δεσπόται δ ̓ ὑμεῖς, δεσπότης 87 δ ̓ ἦν ἐγώ. ἣν τοίνυν ὑμῶν ἂν ἕκαστος δίκην ἀξιώσειε λαβεῖν, ταύτην νομίζετε καμοὶ προσήκειν νῦν καὶ τὸν ἀφῃρημένον τῷ μαρτυρῆσαι τὰ ψευδῆ καὶ ὑπὲρ τῶν 1128 νόμων καὶ ὑπὲρ τῶν ὅρκων, οὓς ὀμωμοκότες δικάζετε, τιμωρήσασθε καὶ παράδειγμα ποιήσατε τοῖς ἄλλοις, μνημονεύοντες πάντα ὅσα ἀκηκοάτε ἡμῶν, καὶ φυλάττοντες, ἐὰν παράγειν ἐπιχειρῶσιν ὑμᾶς, καὶ πρὸς ἕκα στον ἀπαντώντες, ἐὰν μὴ φῶσιν ἅπαντα μεμαρτυρηκέναι, “τί οὖν ἐν τῷ γραμματείῳ γέγραπται; τί οὖν b Bekker (Berlin ed.). cum ΕΣΦ. has gone so far as to attest to οὐχ ἱκανὸν τὸ ὕδωρ.] Cf. note on Or. 54 § 36. μὴ γὰρ......] se. σκέψηται, understood from σκέψαιτο in the previous sentence.

The Kerrich us like the rest, omits the article. §§ 1-3. Stephanus has made a long reply to my former speech, and, as I suspected, has had a good deal to say in defence of his evidence. A cunning rogue himself, and well primed by Phormio's numerous advisers, he has attempted to mislead you into the notion that he is not responsible for all the details of his deposition. He has not brought a single witness to prove, either (1) that he was present when my father made the alleged will, or (2) that he ever saw it opened after my father's death; and yet he has actually deposed that the copy set forth in his deposition is a transcript of the 'will. By so doing he is palpably convicted of having given false testimony. 1. παράγων—ὑπενόουν.] Apollodorus had already, in his former speech, thrown out his |
