[120]
To meet the impudence of this
assertion of his, of the defense which he has concocted, and of the witnesses
whom he has suborned to support it, I tendered him a precise and reasonable
challenge, by means of which you would have been enabled to know the whole
truth: I proposed that he should deliver up for the torture the women-servants,
Thratta and Coccalinê, who remained loyally with Neaera when she came
to Stephanus from Megara, and those whom she purchased subsequently, while
living with him, Xennis and Drosis;
Demosthenes. Demosthenes with an English translation by Norman W. DeWitt, Ph.D., and Norman J. DeWitt, Ph.D. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1949.
