Against Ctesiphon
The prosecutor who brought an illegality indictment against Philocrates' motion.
Lycinus, who had indicted him, spoke for the prosecution;
On the Embassy
The Athenian whose name was attached to the indictment charging Philocrates' peace motion as unconstitutional.
for they attacked the motion as unconstitutional, subscribing the name of Lycinus to the indictment, in which they proposed a penalty of one hundred talents.
On the murder of Herodes
A man alleged by the prosecution to be the defendant's confederate and the intended recipient of an incriminating note; the speaker argues Lycinus had no motive and no means to hire him.
In fact, this affords the clearest indication of the relations between Lycinus and myself;
but I must apparently clear Lycinus as well as myself by showing the absurdity of the charge in his case also.
The prosecution further allege that they discovered on board a note stating that I had killed Herodes, which I had intended to send to Lycinus.
