    Against Lacritus

    The Phaselites,1 men of the jury, are up to no new tricks; they are merely doing what it is their wont to do. For they are the cleverest people at borrowing money on your exchange; but, as soon as they get it and have drawn up a maritime contract, they straightway forget the contract and the laws, and that they are under obligation to pay back what they have received.

    1 Phaselis was a town in Bithynia, on the southern coast of Asia Minor.
