[225]
Do you not think this an extremely
dangerous symptom? （For though I had decided to say nothing, I am
tempted to speak out） Of course you know Pythocles, son of Pythodorus.
I was on the most civil terms with him, and there has been no unpleasantness
between us to this day. But now, since his visit to Philip, he turns aside
whenever he meets me, and if he cannot avoid an encounter, he rushes off as soon
as he can for fear he should be seen talking to me, while he will perambulate
the whole market-place discussing plans with Aeschines.
