As for me, men of the jury, since I was involved in the difficulties which I have related
 to you, deprived of all I had at home and under compulsion to surrender what I had here to
 the envoys from Pontus, and finding myself without any means unless I could secretly
 retain in my possession the money on deposit with Pasion, I did, I admit, acknowledge a
 debt due him of three hundred drachmas and that in other respects I behaved and spoke in a
 manner which I thought would best persuade them that I possessed nothing.
