| | Demosthenes: Against Aristocrates (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | In spite of that, when Cotys, who owed his deliverance to Iphicrates, and had had practical experience of his loyalty, believed himself to be permanently out of danger, he took no pains to reward him, and never showed you any civility through his agency in the hope of winning forgiveness for his past conduct. |
 | | Cotys expected to rob Iphicrates of honours, of maintenance, of statues, of the country that made him a man to be envied, I may almost say of everything that made life worth living : yet he had no scruple. |
 | | After a certain lapse of time, when the war with Cotys had already broken out, he sent a letter to you; or rather, not to you but to Cephisodotus, for, being conscious of his transgressions, he was very much of the opinion that the beguilement of Athens was a task beyond his own powers. |
