Dost thou hear, i^fchines, that in this Infcription, unerring

raifing his Voice, with a Tone of Exultation, and clamoroufly

In regard to repairing our Walls and Intrenchments, which
you have made the Subjed of your Ridicule, I really think it
deferves Gratitude and Applaufe. Why (hould it not ? How-
ever, I am far from placing it among the more important Ser-

with Bricks or Stones, nor from thence do I derive my princi-
pal Glory. But if you will accurately inquire what were the
Fortifications I have eredled, you will find them to confift in
Arms, and Cities, and Fortrefies, and Harbours, and Gallies,
and numerous Levies of Cavalry and Infantry, that fought in De-
fence of the Athenians. / Thefe were the Bulwarks, which, as
far as pofiible to human Wifdom, I oppofed to the Enemies of
Attica ; thefe were the Ramparts, with which I furrounded, not
only the Pyraeum and the City, but all our Dominions. Never
did Philip gain any Superiority over me either in his political or
