[70]
He will say, gentlemen, attempting to deceive you, that in the time of the Four Hundred¹ he killed Phrynichus,² and in reward for this, he asserts, the people made him an Athenian citizen. But he lies, gentlemen. For neither did he kill Phrynichus, nor did the people make him an Athenian citizen.

[70] λέξει δέ, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί, καὶ ἐξαπατῆσαι ὑμᾶς πειράσεται, ὡς ἐπὶ τῶν τετρακοσίων Φρύνιχον ἀπέκτεινε, καὶ ἀντὶ τούτου φησιν αὐτὸν Ἀθηναῖον τὸν δῆμον ποιήσασθαι, ψευδόμενος, ὦ ἄνδρες δικασταί· οὔτε γὰρ Φρύνιχον ἀπέκτεινεν οὔτε Ἀθηναῖον αὐτὸν ὁ δῆμος ἐποιήσατο.
