Αἰγινῆται δὲ ἐοῦσι ἀτάκτοισι τοῖσι Ἀθηναίοισι1 συμβαλόντες τῇσι νηυσὶ ἐνίκησαν, καί σφεων νέας τέσσερας αὐτοῖσι τοῖσι ἀνδράσι2 εἷλον.
But the Aeginetans, joining battle with their ships against the Athenians who were in disarray, won a victory, and captured four of their ships, crews and all.
- 6.93.1ἐοῦσι ἀτάκτοισι τοῖσι Ἀθηναίοισι
The participle ἐοῦσι (the Ionic form corresponding to Attic οὖσι), along with its predicate adjective ἀτάκτοισι, modifies τοῖσι Ἀθηναίοισι (dative, governed by συμβαλόντες), meaning 'to the Athenians who were in disarray'.
- 6.93.1αὐτοῖσι τοῖσι ἀνδράσι
An idiomatic use of the dative of accompaniment, where the dative of αὐτός combined with a noun in the dative means 'together with', 'including', or 'crews and all' (literally, 'with the men themselves').
