Translation: Demosthenes in the [speech]
For Ktesiphon [writes]: "each having brought about the mutilation of their own homelands".[1] Meaning having injured [them]. For those who injure people are in the habit of cutting off their extremities. However, the passage has "having brought about the mutilation" instead of "having mutilated".[2]
