The peace in question exalted the Athenian democracy; it rendered it so powerful that during the years after we gained peace we first of all deposited a thousand talents on the Acropolis and passed a law which set them apart as a state reserve[*]; in addition to that we built a hundred triremes, and decreed that they should be kept in reserve likewise: we laid out docks,[*] we enrolled twelve hundred cavalry and as many archers, and the Long Wall to the south was constructed.[*] Such were the benefits which Athens derived from the peace with Sparta, such the strength which was added thereby to the Athenian democracy.
