Those too, I fancy, who gave the people the surest token of their mutual friendship, Harmodius and Aristogiton,[*] do not regard as Leosthenes and his comrades in arms; nor are there any with whom they would rather hold converse in the lower world than these. We need not wonder; for what these men did was no less a task than theirs; it was indeed, if judgement must be passed, a greater service still. Those two brought low the tyrants of their country, these the masters of the whole of Greece.
