Plutarch Quotes
Menestheus, The Son Of Peteus, Grandson Of Orneus, And The Great-grandson To Erechtheus, The First Man That Is Recorded To Have Affected Popularity And Ingratiated Himself With The Multitude, Stirred Up And Exasperated The Most Eminent Men Of The City, Who Had Long Borne A Secret Grudge To Theseus, Conceiving That He Had Robbed Them Of Their Several Little Kingdoms And Lordships, And, Having Pent Them All Up In One City, Was Using Them As His Subjects And Slaves. He Put Also The Meaner People Into Commotion, Telling Them, That, Deluded With A Mere Dream Of Liberty, Though Indeed They Were Deprived Both Of That And Of Their Proper Homes And Religious Usages, Instead Of Many Good And Gracious Kings Of Their Own, They Had Given Themselves Up To Be Lorded Over By A New-comer And A Stranger.
