Is it not outrageous, men of the jury, that, although such were the terms of the
 covenant and the oaths which were sworn were of such nature, Callimachus is so convinced
 of his own eloquence that he believes he will persuade you to vote in opposition to them?
 If he saw that the city regretted its past action, his conduct should not occasion
 surprise; but as a matter of fact you have shown the importance you attach to the
 covenant, not only in the enactment of the laws, but when Philon of Coele was indicted for malversation on an embassy, and although he
 could offer no defense but merely cited the covenant in exoneration, you decided to
 dismiss his case and not even hold him for trial. And although the city does not think it
 proper to punish even confessed transgressors, yet this man has the effrontery to bring
 malicious charges against those who have done no wrong at all.
