By this decree you reinstated those who had lost their rights; but neither the proposal of Patrocleides nor your own enactment contained any reference to a restoration of exiles. However, after you had come to terms with 
 Sparta and demolished your walls, you allowed your exiles to return too. In April, 404. The Thirty were installed by the following summer on the motion of Dracontides, which the presence of the Spartan garrison made it difficult to reject. In the winter of 404 a number of the exiled democrats under Thrasybulus seized 
 Phyle on the northern frontier of Attica; then they moved on Peiraeus and fortified Munychia. By February 403 they were strong enough to crush the Thirty, the remnants of whom fled to 
 Eleusis , whence they were finally extirpated in 401. Then the Thirty came into power, and there followed the occupation of 
 Phyle and Munychia, and those terrible struggles which I am loath to recall either to myself or to you.
