Next in importance is the speech "Against Agoratus" (388 BC), one of our chief authorities for the internal history of Athens during the months which immediately followed; the defeat at Aegospotami. The Olympiacus (388 BC) is a brilliant fragment, expressing the spirit of the festival at Olympia, and exhorting Greeks to unite against their common foes. "The Plea for the Constitution" (403 BC) is interesting for the manner in which it argues that the well-being of Athens—now stripped of empire—is bound up with the maintenance of democratic principles. The speech "For Mantitheus" (392 BC) is a graceful and animated portrait, of a young Athenian "hippeus", making a spirited defence of his honor against the charge of disloyalty. The defence "For the" "Invalid" is a humorous character-sketch. The speech "Against Pancleon" illustrates the intimate relations between Athens and Plataea, while it gives us some picturesque glimpses of Athenian town life. The defence of the person who had, been charged with destroying a "mona", or sacred olive, places us amidst the country life of Attica. And the speech "Against Theomnestus" deserves attention for its curious evidence of the way in which the ordinary vocabulary of Athens had changed between 600 and 400 BC.
