Later we went to war on account of Aegina[*]; and after both sides had suffered heavily, we were seized once more with a desire for peace. So a deputation of ten among them my grandfather, Andocides was chosen from the whole citizen body and dispatched to Sparta with unlimited powers to negotiate a peace. They arranged a thirty years peace with Sparta for us. That is a long period, gentlemen; yet did the democracy ever fall in the course of it? Was any party, I ask you, ever caught plotting a revolution? No one can point to an instance. In fact just the opposite happened.
