Therefore whatever you remit
with one hand, you receive with the other; and you grant as an honor exemptions
which even those who receive them cannot enjoy, if they have wealth sufficient
for the equipment of a war-vessel. But although I suppose you all know that no
one is exempt from the latter service, the clerk shall read to you the actual
statute. Take the law about the trierarchy and read this clause only.“Law[And
none shall be exempt from the trierarchy except the nine
archons.]”
