Libanius, Hypotheses to the Orations of Demosthenes

Craig Gibson, trans., edition of April 30, 2003

page 10 of 58

· § 9 (Dem. 9) ·

Since Philip is nominally keeping the peace, but in actuality is committing many wrongs against the Athenians, the orator advises them to stand up and defend themselves against the king, since a great danger is threatening them and all the rest of the Greeks in common.
