Excerpt from Elegant Extracts, Vol. 3: Being a Copious Selection of Instructive, Moral, and Entertaining Passages, From the Most Eminent Prose Writers; Book V. Vi. Orations and Harangues; Parliamentary Speeches
Had we been convened, Athenians! On some new subject of debate, I had waited until most of the usual persons had declared their opinions. If I had approved of any thing preposed by them, I should have continued silent: if not, I had then attempted to speak my sentiments. But since those very points, on which these speakers have oftentimes been heard already,are, at this time, to be considered though I have risen first, I pre sume I may expect your pardon; for if they on former occasions had advised the necessary mea sures, you would not have found it needful to con sult at present.
