          pledge which he failed to keep, as you yourselves will learn as my story proceeds, and he
          agreed to sail with me to the Pontus and there pay me back the gold, in order that he
          might settle our contract at as great a distance as possible from Athens, and that no one
          here might know the nature of our settlement, and also that on his return from the Pontus
          he might say anything he pleased; but in the event that he should not fulfil these
          obligations, he proposed to entrust to Satyrus an arbitration on stated terms<note resp="editor">For arbitration under terms or on certain conditions cf. also <bibl n="Isoc. 18.10">Isoc. 18.10</bibl> and <bibl n="Dem. 49">Dem. 49</bibl>, <title>Against Spudias</title>, fn. 1. In such cases the arbitrator had no
            discretionary power. Cf. Jebb’s <title>Attic Orators</title> ii. p. 234.</note> which
          would permit Satyrus to condemn Pasion to pay the original sum, and half as much in
          addition. </p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
