I would not have written this had I not wished to stir
in you the recollection of the vices that attach to him. For many terrible and shameful
things, which a man would shrink from telling and would guard against mentioning in
writing and, as I think, would be disgusted to hear of, each one of you, reminded by these
words, knows to attach to this man, so that nothing indecent has been uttered by me and
this man upon sight is a reminder to all of his own vices. Farewell.
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.
