Examples

  • τήν τε γὰρ εἰρήνην οὐχὶ δυνηθέντων ὡσ ἐπεχείρησαν οὗτοι, πλὴν Ἁλέων καὶ Φωκέων, γράψαι, ἀλλ’ ἀναγκασθέντοσ ὑφ’ ὑμῶν τοῦ Φιλοκράτουσ ταῦτ’ ἀπαλεῖψαι, γράψαι δ’ ἄντικρυσ, Ἀθηναίουσ καὶ τοὺσ Ἀθηναίων συμμάχουσ, οὐκ ἐβούλετο τοῦτον ὀμωμοκέναι τὸν ὁρ́κον οὐδένα τῶν αὑτοῦ συμμάχων οὐ γὰρ αὐτῷ συστρατεύσειν ἐφ’ ἃ νῦν ἔχει τῶν ὑμετέρων ἔμελλον, ἀλλ’ ἕξειν πρόφασιν τοὺσ ὁρ́κουσ, οὔτε μάρτυρασ γενέσθαι τῶν ὑποσχέσεων, ἐφ’ αἷσ εὑρίσκετο τὴν εἰρήνην, οὐδὲ τοῦτο δειχθῆναι πᾶσιν, ὅτι οὐκ ἄρ’ ἡ πόλισ ἡ τῶν Ἀθηναίων ἥττητο τῷ πολέμῳ, ἀλλὰ Φίλιππόσ ἐστιν ὁ τῆσ εἰρήνησ ἐπιθυμῶν καὶ ὁ πόλλ’ ὑπισχνούμενοσ τοῖσ Ἀθηναίοισ ἂν τύχῃ τῆσ εἰρήνησ.
