' ^' PREFACE. 
 
 TN deference to the opinions of many gentlemen 
 J- engaged in the work of Education, the Pubhshers 
 take the opportunity of a new edition being called 
 for to add Mr Drake's Edition of the Be Corona, 
 the companion oration of iEschines contra Ctesiphon- 
 tern, and to place the notes (as in Mr Merivale's 
 Edition of Sallust) at the end of the orations, instead 
 of at the foot of each page. 
 
 Very little alteration or addition has been made 
 to Mr Drake's Notes. The terseness and felicity 
 of his translations constitute perhaps the chief value 
 of his edition, and the historical and archaeological 
 details necessary to understanding the JDe Corona 
 have in some measure been anticipated in the notes 
 on the Oration of ^schines. 
 
 In both, the text adopted in the Zurich edition 
 of 1841, and taken from the Parisian MS. has been 
 adhered to without any variation. Where the 
 readings of Bekker, Dissen, and others appear . 
 preferable, they are subjoined in the notes. 
 
Ti PREFACE. 
 
 In his first Edition Mr Drake freely acknow- 
 ledges his obligations to Bremi's notes on the De 
 Corond, to the review of Lord Brougham's transla- 
 tion, to Mr Shilleto's Edition of the liapaiTpea^eia, 
 and to Mr Norris's translation. In the present, 
 frequent references are made to Bremi's notes on 
 the oration of ^schines, to Mr Whiston's Edition 
 of Be Corona, to the translation of the same (and 
 the valuable appendices at the end) by Mr C. R. 
 Kennedy, to Mr Grote's Greece^ and other eminent 
 authorities. 
 
 It only requires to be added that Mr Drake's 
 preface has been to a considerable extent re-written 
 and adapted to both the Orations, and that certain 
 quotations placed by him at the beginning have 
 been transferred (with a few additions) to the end 
 of the volume in the shape of Appendices.

// V" OF THE '' 
 
 TO THE if 
 
 It is not intended in the present notice to give more 
 than a very general account of the origin and history of 
 the following famous orations. 
 
 For ampler details the Student will consult the histories 
 of Thirlwall and Grote, the life of Demosthenes in Smith's 
 Biographical Dictionary , and other eminent authorities. 
 
 A few remarks, however, on the immediate causes of 
 the two orations, and on their general character, will not 
 perhaps be out of place. 
 
 The year b. c. 338, as is well known, witnessed the 
 disastrous battle of Chseroneia, and the destruction of the 
 liberties of Greece^ which became henceforth a province 
 of the Macedonian monarchy. Nothing could exceed the 
 consternation with which the news of the terrible reverse 
 w^as received at Athens, one thousand Athenian citizens 
 had fallen on the fatal field, two thousand more remained 
 in the hands of Philip as prisoners^. 
 
 Almost every one under the ages of twenty and fifty, 
 able to bear arms, had been sent out to take part in the 
 late engagement, and scarcely any remained to defend the 
 city save those incapable of active service, the aged and 
 infirm. At this juncture Demosthenes, who was still 
 listened to with undimmished confidence, exerted himself 
 with more than his usual energy, to do all that was possible 
 
 1 "Hie dies universse Graeciae et gloriam dominationis et 
 vetustissiraam libertatem finivit." Justin. IX. 3. 
 * Grote's Greece, xi. 692. 
 
viii INTRODUCTION. 
 
 towards putting the city in a posture of defence. As Com- 
 missioner for the repair of the walls (an office to which 
 he had been elected in the year b. c. 339) he set himself 
 with all activity to strengthen the defences of the City, 
 and expended upon the work, from his own resources, three 
 talents more than had been allowed him out of the public 
 treasury. 
 
 About seven months after, when the apprehensions of 
 the citizens had been removed in consequence of the 
 moderation and clemency of Philip, Ctesiphon, a political 
 admirer of Demosthenes, brought in a bill before the council 
 of Five Hundred, proposing that the services of the orator 
 should be publicly recognised and particularly his large 
 private contributions for the public use. The Bill was ap- 
 proved, and a decree came down to the popular Assembly 
 declaring it to be the will of the Council and People of 
 Athens that "Demosthenes should be presented with a 
 golden crown in requital of his public services," and that 
 proclamation of the same should be made in the theatre, 
 at the Great Dionysian Festival. 
 
 Such a proposition was of course tantamount to a direct 
 condemnation of the policy of the Macedonian party. 
 And the opposition thus naturally called forth took the 
 shape of an indictment of Ctesiphon for illegality (ypa^?) 
 irapavoyioiv). 
 
 The indictment was entrusted to ^schines, the second 
 of Athenian orators, and the determined foe of Demosthe- 
 nes, who attacked the bill of Ctesiphon on the following 
 grounds : — 
 
 First, because it was illegal to confer a cro^^^^ upon 
 any person who had an account to render of his official 
 conduct ; and Demosthenes both as a Conservator of walls 
 and as treasurer of the Theoric fund was amenable to such 
 a scmtiny. 
 
 Secondly, because it was unlawful to proclaim the 
 honour of a croAvn in the theatre at the Dionysian festival,

 at the performance of the new tragedies; inasmuch as the 
 law required, that, if the Council gave a crown, it should 
 be proclaimed in the Council-Hall; if the people, in the 
 Pnyx at the popular assembly. 
 
 Thirdly^ because it was untrue that Demosthenes 
 deserved any public commendation; and to make false 
 allegations in a State document was contrary to law. 
 
 On these grounds jEschines rested his indictment 
 against Ctesiphon for proposing unconstitutional measures. 
 But, though begun coincidently with the passing of the 
 decree, the prosecution itself was suffered to lie dormant 
 for more than seven years, i.e. from b. 0. 338 to 330. 
 
 These seven years had been prolific in important events. 
 Philip had died, and been succeeded by his son Alexander ; 
 the battles of the Granicus, Issus, and Arbela had all been 
 fought ; a Macedonian youth sat on the throne of Darius : 
 and that supremacy, which all his life long Demosthenes 
 had exerted himself to oppose, was no less triumphant in 
 Asia than in Greece. 
 
 The much desired opportunity had come at last; and 
 all the political passions of the Macedonian party, as well 
 as the private animosity of iEschines, concentrated them- 
 selves in a determined and final effort to put down their 
 great antagonist. 
 
 The public prosecution of Ctesiphon excited the in- 
 tensest interest not only at Athens but throughout the 
 whole of Greece. Greeks from every state and foreigners 
 from all parts flocked to hear the speeches of the two 
 most renowned orators in the world. The interest of 
 Ctesiphon in the trial was merely nominal. The whole policy 
 and administration of Demosthenes was to be arraigned 
 and impeached. And before a jury of no less than five 
 hundred, and "a dense and breathless audience/' iEschines 
 cummenced his attack^. 
 
 ^ Perhaps the best introduction to the speech may be given 
 in the words of Cicero himself, in the treatise De opiimo genere 
 
X INTliODUGTION. 
 
 {a) In support of the first count in the indictment he 
 brings forward a law which distinctly forbade the bestowal 
 of a crow^n upon any one who had held a magisterial 
 office before he had passed the usual scrutiny. 
 
 It might, indeed, be urged that the office which Demos- 
 thenes had held did not come within the terms of the 
 Statute, being an inferior employment. But, by the law 
 of Athens, any office conferred by the people, whether it 
 concerned the superintendence of public works, or the 
 distribution of public moneys, was to be regarded as magis- 
 terial, and as subject to the scrutiny. Now Demosthenes 
 had been u Commissioner of public works, he had been 
 elected to that office by the Pandionian tribe according to 
 the terms of a decree of the people, he had been entrusted 
 with the disbursement of ten talents of the public money, 
 
 oratorum, (which is considered genuine by the best critics) : 
 "Quuin esset lex Athenis, ne quis populi scitum faceret, ut 
 quisquam Coron^ donaretur in magistratu pritis, qukm rationes 
 retulisset: et altera lex, eos qui a populo donarentur, in concione 
 donari debere : quia in senatu Demosthenes curator muris re- 
 ficiendis f uit, eosque refecit pecunia su^ : de hoc igltur Ctesiphon 
 scitum fecit, nullis ab ipso rationibus relatis, ut coron^ aure^ 
 donaretur ; eaque donatio fieret in theatro, populo convocato ; 
 qui locus non est concionis legitimse : atque ita prsedicaretur, 
 eum donari virtutis ergo henevol&nticBque^ quam erga populum 
 Atkeniensem haberet. Hunc igitur Ctesiphontem in judicium 
 adduxit JEschLnes, quod contra leges scripsisset, ut et rationibus 
 non relatis coron^ donaretur, et ut in theatro, et qu6d de vir- 
 tute ejus et benevolentiS. falsa scripsisset : quoniam Demosthenes 
 nee vu' bonus esset, nee henh meritus de civitate. Itaque causa 
 ^schini, quoniam ipse a Demosthene esset capitis accusatus, 
 quod legationem ementitus esset, ut ulciscendi inimici caus^ 
 nomine Ctesiphontis, judicium fieret de factis, fam^que Demos- 
 thenis. Non enim tam multa dixit de relationibus non relatis 
 qukm de eo, quod civis improbus, ut optimus, laudatus esset." — 
 Capp. VII. vm.

 he had, moreover, been appointed treasurer of the Thcoric 
 fund by a decree of the people. He was clearly amenable, 
 therefore, to the provisions of the Statute, and whether 
 the moneys he had expended came from the public fund^ 
 or from private sources, made no material difference; 
 nothing could exempt him from the law of the democracy 
 that no magisterial office should be irresponsible. 
 
 (&) Proceeding to the second count in the indictment, 
 he supports it by a Statute enacting that if the Council 
 conferred a crown, it must be proclaimed in the Council 
 Chamber, if the people, in the Assembly, and in no other 
 place. Nor was this done without a purpose. Its object 
 was to prevent the ostentatious display before foreigners 
 of these honours, which only concerned the members of 
 the Commonwealth. Now this Statute too had been in- 
 fringed by Ctesiphon in his anxiety to parade the honours 
 of Demosthenes at the Dionysian festival, before the large 
 numbers then assembled. 
 
 The arguments of iSschines on these two points consti- 
 tute the strongest part of his attack. Here he was safe ; 
 and in dealing with the specific violations of Athenian law 
 of which Ctesiphon had been guilty, he exhibits great 
 skilfulness and care. 
 
 (c) But this did not content him. Leaving these legal 
 points, he now proceeded to the third count in his indict- 
 ment against Ctesiphon, to shew that Demosthenes was 
 utterly undeserving of any public commendation whatever. 
 This involved a review of the entire political career of his 
 rival. He divides his public life into four distinct periods, 
 and endeavours to prove that in each and all of them, so 
 far from deserving praise of his country, the conduct of. 
 Demosthenes was open to the severest censure. "And 
 here," observes Mr Kennedy, "the reader who carefully 
 examines the speech of jEschines will not fail to observe, 
 that he betrays a consciousness of weakness. He seems to 
 feel that he is speaking in opposition to the general feeling 
 
xii INTRODUCTION. 
 
 of his hearers. His own character as a politician had 
 been so dubious, his conduct so open to suspicion, that 
 while he most bitterly assails his adversary, he is constantly 
 under the necessity of defending himself. On the whole 
 life, public and private, of Demosthenes, he pours a torrent 
 of invective; to this the greater part of his speech is 
 devoted : yet he seems to have been impelled to it rather 
 by hate and reveuge, than by any calculation of advan- 
 tage V 
 
 On the conclusion of the speech of the prosecutor, and 
 after a few words pro forma from Ctesiphon, Demosthenes 
 commenced his reply. Knowing his weakness as to the 
 legal questions, he dexterously throws them into the middle 
 of his speech, and strives to divert the attention of the 
 Court from these technical points to the vindication of his 
 own merits as a statesman. He makes it his chief object 
 to shew that the credit of the state itself was inseparably 
 bound up with his own, and impresses upon the minds of 
 the jury that the question really at issue was tliis, whether 
 himself or -^schines were more worthy of their confidence ; 
 not whether Ctesiphon had or had not violated the laws. 
 Refusing to comply with the crafty demand of ^schines 
 that he should take the counts of the indictment in the 
 same order as his accuser, he chooses freely such topics as 
 pleased him in the review of his own political career, and 
 endeavours to shew that '^attachment to his country, and 
 earnest anxiety for her welfare, had been his constant and 
 abiding motives of action : that throughout his whole life, 
 in the day of power, in the hour of trial and adversity, 
 these feelings had never deserted him : that this was the 
 test of a good and honest citizen; that by it he ought 
 to be judgedV

INTRODUCTION. xiii 
 
 Such is a brief outline of these two celebrated orations. 
 The one is perhaps as fine a piece of eloquence as was ever 
 unsuccessful, the other, "the unapproachable master-piece 
 of Grecian oratory," satisfies our highest expectations, 
 even when we know that Demosthenes expended his ut- 
 most efforts on its composition. "It breathes,'' writes 
 Thirl wall, "the spirit of that high philosophy which, 
 whether learnt from the schools or from life, has consoled 
 the noblest of our kind in prisons, and on scaff'olds, and 
 under every persecution of adverse fortune ; but in the tone 
 necessary to impress a mixed multitude with like feeling, 
 and to elevate it for a while into a sphere above its own, 
 there certainly have been few readers in whom it has not 
 left a strong conviction of the speaker's patriotism, if not 
 of his general integrity and political virtue^" 
 
 "The effect produced by the speech upon an Athenian 
 audience," writes Mr Kennedy, "can be but faintly ima- 
 gined by us who read it at this distance of time. Although 
 Athens was not then what she had once been; although 
 she was humbled by defeat, shorn of her honours, stripped 
 of her Empire and dependencies, without allies, without 
 resources, without means of resistance to that iron power 
 under which all Greece had succumbed; there was still 
 the remembrance of the past, not yet extinguished by 
 habitual servitude ; there were still vague hopes of future 
 deliverance, and a fire of smothered indignation burning 
 in the hearts of the people, ready to burst into a flame at 
 
 1 Thirl wall's Greece, vil. p. 137. Mr Grote calls the speech 
 "the funeral oration of extinct Athenian and Grecian free- 
 dom.'* '*As regards principles and morals it was cited with 
 other orations of Demosthenes (Phit. in Vit. c. 13) by the Stoic 
 Pansetius in proof of his assertion, that the great orator always 
 appealed to and based his arguments upon the laws of truth, 
 and justice, and honour, rather than expediency or selfishness." 
 Whiston's Demosthenes, p. 396. 
 
xiv INTRODUCTION. 
 
 the first favourable opportunity. That such were their 
 feelings is proved by what occurred seven years afterwards 
 upon the death of Alexander; when Athens made one 
 convulsive effort for freedom, ere she finally submitted 
 to her fate. Demosthenes stood before his countrymen, 
 representing all which remained of Athenian dignity and 
 glory. If any man could help them, it was he. His advice 
 had always been steady, and constant ; his warnings should 
 have been earlier attended to : but even yet there might 
 be need of him. He was their consolation for the past, 
 their hope for the future. During the progress of his 
 address, such thoughts rushed upon their minds with 
 greater and greater force, till they were elevated above 
 themselves, and all the spirit of their ancestors was for the 
 moment regenerate within them. 
 
 **They could forgive him all his egotism and self-praise. 
 It was the praise of a life devoted to their service. Where 
 he lauded his own acts most strongly, he identified them 
 with the glories of his country. Whatever good results 
 might have accrued from his measures, he ascribed the 
 merit less to himself, than to the fortune of Athens, or to 
 the gods, of whom he was but the humble instrument in a 
 righteous cause. His own eloquence would have been of 
 no avail, had it not touched the true chord of Athenian 
 feeling. Throughout his whole political career he had 
 been supported by the judgment and conviction of the 
 people. Thus he argued, and the people felt it was im- 
 possible for them to find him guilty, without passing sen- 
 tence upon themselves, without condemning the policy 
 which Athens had for a long series of years consistently 
 pursued. The genius of Athens protected her from such 
 disgrace; and by an overwhelming majority, which left 
 the accuser no choice but to retire into exile, a verdict was 
 given for the defendant,**

 ON THE ORATION OF 
 
 ^SCHINES AGAINST CTESIPHON. 
 
 Ch. 1 — 9. Exordium : Deprecation of factious proceedings, 
 and party influence, which tend to prevent the due execution of 
 justice. 
 
 1. irapaaKcviiv ...irap&Ta^iv, "Vocabula desumta ex re 
 militari," Bremi, = "The muster and array of partisans, and 
 supporters of Demosthenes." Trapao-iceud^eo-^ at is frequently used 
 in the sense of "preparing or procuring for oneself persons as 
 witnesses or partisans," so as to obtain a sentence by force or 
 fi'aud ; hence its combination with prjropas, xpevdeis \6yovs, fidp- 
 rvpaSf (TV KO(pdvT as. The court, on the occasion of this great 
 trial, was thronged by hearers, who ranged themselves on the 
 side of ^schines or Demosthenes. The number of the jurymen 
 in the Athenian courts gave great opportunity for the use of 
 factious arts, deriaeis. Comp. Liv. iii. 14. virkp roO^ k. r. X. 
 {fir^p with an infinitive denotes "for the purpose of." iyu>j em- 
 phatic, "I for my part," whatever others may do. 
 
 2. r^v ^ov\7)v Toi)s irevT. Kal ras iKKXyjaias, ** the Council 
 of Five Hundred, and the Popular Assemblies." The former 
 was an executive and deliberative body appointed more espe- 
 cially to prepare measures for the latter. The members were 
 chosen by lot from the whole body of the people, were required 
 to be genuine citizens both on the father's and mother's side, 
 and of the age of 30. Their term of office (called a Pytany) 
 lasted a year, and at its expiration they were required to render 
 an official account of their administration to the auditors. tQv 
 e0e(7r?7/c6rwi'=" their presiding officers," i. e. the irpoidpoi, and 
 iirKTTdrrjs. Comp. Soph. AjaXy 1072 ; Xen. Mem. I. i. 18.

 sententias perrogant, in suffragia mittunt, "put to the vote*" 
 iK irapaa-KevTjs Kad€^6/j,evoL= " obtaining their seats by intrigue." 
 e^(ra77^XXei;/="to accuse him by bill of indictment." An 
 eia-ayyeXLa is a "delatio," or "impeachment," laid before the 
 Council, or the assembly of the people. See Diet. Antiq. 
 
204: jESCHIFES. 
 
 rovi ldi(Jrai. See Smith's Diet, Antiq, 994 6. " Although all 
 citizens had the right of speaking in the iKKXijala, the privilege 
 was of course exercised by a few only, who felt themselves com- 
 petent to the task, and in the time of Demosthenes, when rhe- 
 toric was studied as a science, the debates were mostly confined 
 to a few practised orators and statesmen, as they are generally 
 elsewhere. Hence the p-qTopes^ or drjfirjyopoi, are distinguished 
 from the Idiojraiy or general body of citizens, who took no part 
 in the debates." C. R. Kennedy. 
 
 4. Kripvyfia, according to the institution of Solon, those who 
 were above 50 years of age were first called upon to speak, 
 and then the younger men. But this custom became obsolete. 
 See Smith's Diet, Antiq, 442 a, 
 
 5. vpoXiyu) vfupy k, t. X. " I forewarn yon a day will come 
 when you will find that you have imperceptibly and Httle by 
 little abandoned the constitution to a faction."

 times. Formerly the Strategus was general in the field and 
 leader in the assembly. In later times the various parties into 
 which the state was divided had each their orator (prjTcop) and 
 general. The Strategi, therefore, were often exposed to the 
 maUce and misrepresentations of unfriendly demagogues, and 
 were often more engaged in political contests at home than in

 9. Having introduced the general charge [t) SXtj Karriyopliij 
 ^schines proceeds to show, (1) (Chs. 9 — 13) that a most essen- 
 tial law of the State had without excuse been violated in pro- 
 posing to crown Demosthenes before the accounts of his ad- 
 ministration have been duly scrutinized ; (2) (Chs. 13 — 16) that 
 his appointment to an extraordinary office could not be justly 
 pleaded in extenuation; (3) (Chs. 16 — 32) that the fact that the 
 money he had spent was his own could not make him a whit the 
 less amenable to the scrutiny. To that scrutiny all offices were 
 amenable, and Demosthenes as holding two when the bill of 
 Ctesiphon was proposed could not evade the law.

 or place of assembly of the Athenian people, formed part of the 
 surface of a low rocky hill, at the distance of a quarter of a mile 
 from the centre of the Areiopagus hill. It may be described as 
 an area formed by a semicircle (very nearly), the radius of which 
 varies from about 60 to 80 yards, containing about 12,000 square 
 yards. In the middle point of the wall of rock, which forms the 
 chord of this semicircle, was the celebrated Bema {^ijfia) or pulpit, 
 often called "the stone" (6 Xldos), commanding a view of the 
 Propylaea, and the other magnificent edifices of the Acropolis : 
 from it the orators addressed the multitude in the semicircular 
 area before them. The Pnyx appears to have been under the 
 special protection of Zeus. See Ai't. " Athenae " in Smith's Diet. 
 Geog, 
 
 35 — 49. It will be pleaded that there is another law allow- 
 ing crowns to be bestowed in the theatre ; but this plea too 
 is inadmissible. 
 
 36. rov AiovvcTLaKbp vbfiov. A fragment of this law is given 
 by Demosthenes in his reply, Ch. 120. " Whensoever any of 
 the townships bestow crowns, proclamations thereof shall be 
 made by them in their several townships, unless where any are 
 crowned by the people of Athens or the Council ; and it shall be 
 lawful for these to be proclaimed in the theatre at the Dionysian 
 festival." "It seems doubtful," says Thirlwall (Hist. Greeee, 
 VII. 135), "v/hether the law on which the prosecution rested had 
 not been modified by another, which declared, that proclamation 
 might be made, as Ctesiphon proposed, if the people should so 
 decree; though ^Eschines specially contended, that this excep- 
 tion was only meant to relate to crowns bestowed on citizens, not 
 by the people, but by foreign states."

 Cephisodotus was an Athenian general sent out with a squadron 
 to the Hellespont, 359 b. c, for the purpose of re-annexing the 
 Chersonesus to the Athenian dominion. He was charged with 
 sacrificing the Athenian interests to Charidemus, of Euboea, and 
 brought to trial. Demosthenes appears to have sailed with the 
 squadi'on, and to have accompanied the general in the flagship 
 which he had equipped as trierarch.

 of the greater Dionysia. Demosthenes prosecuted him for im-

 (diridoTo) in consequence of his receiving the sum of 30 minae.

 Athens was already taken, and the PeirsBUS under siege, the 
 Ehodians fitted out an armament to seize the merchant-vessels

 any one of his privilege of coming before the people and obtain-

 on the ground {ev ra^ei, a military term) of mere spite and envy. 
 By heaven, it is neither right, nOr public-spirited, nor just."

 ypa<p7j irapavdpcjv. But if we look to the parallel passage in 
 iEsch. Ctes. 202, it will appear more probable that Demosthenes 
 alludes to his own case. ^Eschines there says, ''When Ctesi- 
 phon gets up to answer me, he wiD say /ccfXet, ndXei, ' call Demo- 
 sthenes : ' against the state you call him, Athenians," &c. It is 
 of this that Demosthenes here complains. irpayciideL kuI die^riei

 ON THE iJrrjclyLa-fxaTa AND OTHER PUBLIC DOCUMENTS 
 CONTAINED IN THE DE CORONA. 
 
 There are thirty-four documents in all, quoted or referred 
 to, in the De Corona. Of these twenty-seven are actually given 
 us, being the first twenty-seven in order, whereas the last seven 
 are supposed to be lost. Now this fact is a strong prima facie 
 evidence of the whole having been inserted by a later hand than 
 that of Demosthenes himself, probably some one of the Eheto- 
 ricians who began the work, but was unable to complete it. 
 If we look into the documents themselves, the internal evidence 
 in favour of this supposition is still stronger. Ev6ry one of 
 the Ai-chons mentioned by them are fictitious (yj/evZdovvfxoi), 
 except in the solitary instance of Charondas. The following 
 table shews the names of the false Archons, and the real ones 
 as given by Mr Clinton in the Fasti Ilellenici.

APPENDIX A, 283 
 
 The chronology given in these documents is no less erro- 
 neous. Let us take a summary of the events which occurred in 
 the year 346 b.c, and we shall see the falsity of the dates given 
 in the first decree. The Embassy of Ten returned from Mace- 
 donia in the beginning of Elaphebolion, and the Athenians 
 decreed peace with Philip on the 19th of that month. The 
 people placed the management of affairs in the hands of the 
 Senate, and Demosthenes, being a senator, passed a decree on 
 the 3rd of Munychion, "that the embassy should set out at 
 once, and administer the oaths to Philip." [This embassy eirl 
 Tovs opKovs is the subject of Demosthenes and ^schines' speeches 
 De Falsa Legatione']. Now the date given in the xp-qcpia-fjLa, 
 quoted ch. 29, is the last day of Hecatomboeon, not the 3rd of 
 Munychion. 
 
 Our space will not permit us to give an abstract of all the 
 arguments used by Mr Newman in the article we are quoting, 
 by which he proves the spuriousness of these documents. His 
 reasoning about the chronology is just as satisfactory in each 
 case as in the one we have extracted. He also observes that 
 many words are found throughout, which none but later writers 
 would have chosen, such as irapevpeatSf vavapxoSt irXoTa for vavs, 
 wpea^evTaij &c. 
 
 He conceives, with great probability, that the writer of these 
 documents, whoever he was, compiled them from the De Gorond 
 alone, and did not refer to the Uapairpea^eia or any other speeches 
 of Demosthenes. Hence the mistakes in the chronology and 
 omission of many important facts. See Class. Museum, i. Art. 
 12 ; Thirlwall's Greece, Vol. vi. ch. 164; Clinton's Fasti Ilellenici, 
 Vol. II. p. 356.

 ** Turn we now to our man of dignity, — to him who considers 
 others as worthy only of the spittle of his mouth, and beg him to 
 compare his fortunes with mine. {A ddresses himself to JEschines.) 
 Uom and bred in the veriest poverty, your earliest years found 
 you attached to a mean school, of which your father was the 
 preceptor. To prepare the ink, to sponge the benches, and to 
 sweep the school-room; such were your occupations — occupations 
 befitting a menial, but unworthy a freeman's son. Arrived at 
 manhood, you became your mother's aid; as she performed her 
 stock of initiatory rites, you read the mystic formulae, and bore 
 a part in all the subsequent operations. At night it was your 
 business to clothe the candidates in skins of fawn, to pour them 
 out huge cups of wine, to wash them with the lustral water, to 
 cleanse their skin with loam and bran ; and the holy rites thus 
 done, to raise them up and bid them cry, 
 
 {Mimics) My bane I have fled, 
 
 My bliss I have sped: 
 none, as was your boast, giving forth the holy shout with such 
 a potent voice as yourself. (Tuims to the dicasts or bystanders.) 
 VerUy, I can believe it ! for who that hears those powerful tones 
 of declamation in which he now indulges, can for a moment 
 doubt that his religious exclamations were pre-eminently grand? 
 {To ^schines.) The day found you a different employment. 
 You had then to conduct your noble troop through the public 
 streets, their heads crowned with fennel and with poplar leaves, 
 while yourself were seen — ^now pressing the coppered -serpents — 
 now elevating them above your head — ^now shouting 'Evoi 
 Saboi ' — now raising a dance to the words ' Hyes Attes, Attes 
 Hyes,' while all the crones and beldames of the quarter honoured 
 you with the pompous titles of Exarch, chief-conductor, chest- 
 carrier, fan-bearer ; gingerbread, and cake and twisted bun fall- 
 ing plentifully upon you as the rewards of your pious labours. 
 Happy and distinguished lot ! who can think it were his own, 
 and, so thinking, not deem himself supremely blest?"
