When I found myself in difficulties so embarrassing, men of the jury, I related my
 troubles to Pasion; for I was on such intimate terms with him that I had the greatest
 confidence in him, not only in matters of money, but in everything else as well. I thought
 that, if I should yield control of all my money, I should run the risk, in case my father
 met with misfortune, after having been deprived of my money both here in Athens and at
 home, of becoming utterly destitute; and that, if I should acknowledge the existence of
 money here, yet fail to surrender it at Satyrus’ command, I should create the most serious
 grounds of complaint against myself and my father in the mind of Satyrus.
