[145]
I am told,
however, that you assert that three distinct persons indicted you before
Apsephion, but dropped the action. Well, if your complaint against them is that
they did not endanger you, you must be fonder of danger than other people, but
if you bring it forward as a proof of the justice of your proposals, you are
doing a very silly thing. For how is your law improved by the fact that one of
those who indicted you died before he could come into court, or was induced by
you to drop the charge, or even was simply suborned by you? But I am ashamed
even to suggest such things.
