There was a man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, and brought rich profit to his workmen.

If then Demetrius and his craftsmen have a grievance against any one, the courts are open and there are the proconsuls; let them accuse one another.

All men bear testimony to Demetrius, and so does the truth itself. I also bear testimony to him; and you know that my testimony is true.
