After he had acted in this way, men of the jury, Pasion, believing that his past conduct
 had clearly been in error and thinking he could rectify the situation by his subsequent
 acts, came to us and asserted that he was ready to surrender the slave for torture. We
 chose questioners and met in the temple of Hephaestus. The
 Hephaisteion, in Athens, which has long been popularly but erroneously called the
 Theseum. And I demanded that they flog and rack the slave, who had been
 surrendered, until they were of opinion that he was telling the truth. But Pasion here
 asserted that they had not been chosen as torturers, and bade them make oral interrogation
 of the slave if they wished any information.
