[33]
Now, men of the jury, if those who lay plots against others and
bring baseless suits are to have the best of it, all that I have said would
prove of no avail; but if you abominate people of that sort, and vote as justice
demands, then, as Callicles has suffered no loss and has in no way been wronged
either by Callarus or by my father, I do not see what need there is of my saying
more.
