While praise is due to Athens for her policy, for choosing as she did a course not only ranking with her past achievements but even surpassing them in pride and honor, and to the fallen also for their gallantry in battle, for proving worthy of their forbears valor, to Leosthenes the general it is doubly due; the citys guide in framing her decision, he was besides the citizens commander in the field.
