Lysias in the speech - if genuine -
Reply to the indictment of Mixidemos [writes]: "and he has two [slave-]boys in attendance, one of whom he calls Mousaios, the other Hesiod".[1] That the man on trial gave the slaves these names purposely [is] clear. But concerning [sc. the original] Mousaios, some have said that the man [came] from Thrace, others that he is a native [Athenian], from
Eleusis.
