    Several orations of Demosthenes, exciting the Athenians to oppose the exorbitant power of Philip King of Macedon. Translated, in the years 1702 and 1744, from the Original Greek, by the Earl of Peterborough, Lord Lansdowne, Dr. Garth, Colonel Stanhope, Mr. Topham, and other hands. To which is prefix'd a preface, taken from the French of Monsieur Tourreil, containing a short View of the History of Greece, and the Life of Demosthenes. The whole carefully revised and corrected, with Libanius's arguments, and some notes from Ulpian, now first added.
