Greek Original:

Notes:
See already, for Demosthenes 18.209, at gamma 423. It is earlier in the speech (18.129-131) that he mentions "Tromes"; this, he alleges, was the name of the father of Aeschines while he was a slave, not yet the Athenian citizen Atrometos. See web address 1.
At tau 1083, Tromes is spelled with omega.
