On The Estate of Aristarchus
A war in which the speaker and his father were compelled to serve, cited as one reason the family's claim to the estate was delayed.
Then came the Corinthian war, in which my father and I were obliged to serve, so that neither of us could have obtained justice.
Plataicus
A war cited as a historical episode in which Athens saved Thebes and was later abandoned by it.
It would be a laborious task to recount their treacheries in the past, but when the Corinthian war broke out because of their overbearing conduct and the Lacedaemonians had marched against them, although the Thebans had been saved by you, they were so far from showing their gratitude for this service that, when you had put an end to the war, they abandoned you and entered into the alliance with the Lacedaemonians.
