Read this adapted excerpt from "The Third Philippic." written by Demosthenes in 342 B. C.:
It is this fate, I solemnly assure you that I dread for you, when the time comes that you make your reckoning, and realize that there is no
longer anything that can be done. May you never find yourselves, men of Athens, in such a position! Yet in any case, it were better to suffer
hing out of servility towards Philip (or to sacrifice any of those who speak for your good). A noble recompense did
the people in Oreus receive, for entrusting themselves to Philip's friends, and thrusting Euphraeus asidel And a noble recompense the
democracy of Eretria, for driving away your envoys, and surrendering to Cleitarchus! A noble clemency did he show to the Olynthians, who
elected Lasthenes to command the cavalry, and banished Apollonides! It is folly, and it is cowardice, to cherish hopes like these, to give way
to evil counsels, to refuse to do anything that you should do to listen to the advocates of the enemy's cause, and to fancy that you dwell in
so great a city that whatever happens, you will not suffer any harm.
