To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Alcibiades, just upon his departure, prevented Messena from falling into the hands of the Athenians. There were some in that city who were upon the point of delivering it up, but he, knowing the persons, gave informa- tion to some friends of the Syracusans, and so defeated the whole contrivance. When he arrived at Thurii, he went on shore, and, concealing himself there, escaped those who searched after him.
But to one who knew him, and asked him if he durst not trust his own native country, he ...made answer, "In every thing else, yes; but in a matter that touches my life, I would not even my own mother, lest she might by mistake throw in the black ball instead of the white." When, afterwards, he was told that the assembly had pro- nounced judgment of death against him, all he said was "I will make them feel that I am alive." The information against him was conceived in this form: — "Thessalus, the son of Cimon, of the township of Lacia, lays in- formation that Alcibiades, the son of Clinias, of the township of the Scambonida:, has committed a crime against the goddesses Ceres and Proserpine, by representing in derision the holy mysteries, and showing them to his companions in his own house.
