For I see that others are indignant when they are
          unjustly involved in a law-suit, whereas I am almost grateful to my opponents for bringing
          me into this trial.<note resp="editor">A commonplace; cf. <bibl n="Lys. 16.1">Lys. 16.1-2</bibl>; <bibl n="Lys. 24.1">Lys. 24.1</bibl>.</note> For if the matter
          had not been brought before a tribunal you would not have known of my devotion to the
          deceased, which led to my being made his heir; but when you learn the facts you will all
          perceive that I might justly have been thought worthy of even a greater reward. </p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
