[50]
Do you see Aristolochus, son of Charidemus?
Once he possessed some land; now many people own it; for he acquired it while he
was in debt to many. And Sosinomus and Timodemus and the other bankers, who,
when they had to settle with their creditors, had to give up all their property.
But you think it unnecessary to have regard even for the precautions which your
father, a far better man than you and a wiser, took to meet all contingencies.
