[173]
—What then is the reason,
Timocrates and Androtion, that, though one of you has taken part in public life
for more than thirty years, though during that time many commanders have
defrauded the commonwealth, and many politicians as well, who have been tried in
this court, and though some of them have suffered death for their crimes, and
others have condemned themselves by slipping away and disappearing altogether,
neither of you ever once appeared as prosecutor of those offenders, or expressed
any indignation at the wrongs of the city, but made your first exhibition of
anxiety for our welfare in an affair which involved harsh treatment of a great
many people?
