[3] Diognides and Antidorus the metic are impeached on a charge of hiring out flute-girls at a higher price than that fixed by law, Agasicles of Piraeus ¹ because he was registered in Halimus, and Euxenippus because of the dreams which he claims to have had; though surely not one of these charges has anything to do with the impeachment law.

In Defence of Euxenippus

1. Agasicles, according to Harpocration and Suidas (sv. Ἀγασικλῆς), though an alien, bribed the people of Halimus to enroll him in their deme. The former adds that Dinarchus wrote a speech prosecuting him for this. See Din. Fr. 7 .
