§13.64.1κατὰ δὲ τὴν Ἑλλάδα Θρασύβουλος πεμφθεὶς παρʼ Ἀθηναίων μετὰ νεῶν τριάκοντα καὶ πολλῶν ὁπλιτῶν σὺν ἱππεῦσιν ἑκατὸν κατέπλευσεν εἰς τὴν Ἔφεσον· ἐκβιβάσας δὲ τὴν δύναμιν κατὰ δύο τόπους προσβολὰς ἐποιήσατο.
In Greece, Thrasybulus, having been sent by the Athenians with thirty ships and many hoplites along with a hundred cavalry, sailed down to Ephesus; and having landed his force, he made attacks in two places.
τῶν δʼ ἔνδον ἐπεξελθόντων καρτερὰν συνέβη μάχην συστῆναι· πανδημεὶ δὲ τῶν Ἐφεσίων ἀγωνισαμένων τετρακόσιοι μὲν τῶν Ἀθηναίων ἔπεσον, τοὺς δʼ ἄλλους ὁ Θρασύβουλος ἀναλαβὼν εἰς τὰς ναῦς ἐξέπλευσεν εἰς Λέσβον.
As those inside sallied forth, it happened that a fierce battle ensued; and when the Ephesians fought in full force, four hundred of the Athenians fell, and Thrasybulus, taking up the rest into the ships, sailed out to Lesbos.
§13.64.2οἱ δὲ περὶ Κύζικον ὄντες τῶν Ἀθηναίων στρατηγοὶ πλεύσαντες ἐπὶ Χαλκηδόνα, Χρυσόπολιν ᾤκισαν φρούριον καὶ τὴν ἱκανὴν αὐτῷ κατέλιπον δύναμιν· τοῖς δʼ ἐπὶ τούτων κατασταθεῖσι προσέταξαν δεκάτην πράττεσθαι τοὺς ἐκ τοῦ Πόντου πλέοντας.
And the Athenian generals who were around Cyzicus, having sailed to Chalcedon, founded Chrysopolis as a fortress and left a sufficient force in it; and they ordered those appointed over these matters to exact a tenth from those sailing out of the Pontus.
§13.64.3μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα διελομένων αὐτῶν τὰς δυνάμεις, Θηραμένης μὲν μετὰ πεντήκοντα νεῶν κατελείφθη πολιορκήσων Χαλκηδόνα καὶ Βυζάντιον, Θρασύβουλος δὲ περὶ Θρᾴκην πεμφθεὶς τὰς ἐν τούτοις τοῖς τόποις πόλεις προσηγάγετο.
And after this, when they had divided their forces, Theramenes indeed was left with fifty ships to besiege Chalcedon and Byzantium, while Thrasybulus, having been sent to the region of Thrace, won over the cities in these places.
§13.64.4Ἀλκιβιάδης δὲ τὸν Θρασύβουλον μετὰ τῶν τριάκοντα νεῶν ἀπολύσας ἔπλευσεν εἰς τὴν ὑπὸ Φαρνάβαζον χώραν, καὶ κοινῇ πολλὴν αὐτῆς πορθήσαντες τούς τε στρατιώτας ἐνέπλησαν ὠφελείας καὶ αὐτοὶ χρήματα συνήγαγον ἐκ τῶν λαφύρων, βουλόμενοι κουφίσαι τὸν δῆμον τῶν εἰσφορῶν.
And Alcibiades, having dismissed Thrasybulus with the thirty ships, sailed into the territory under Pharnabazus, and plundering much of it in common, they both filled their soldiers with booty and themselves gathered money from the spoils, wishing to lighten the people of their property taxes.
§13.64.5Λακεδαιμόνιοι δὲ πυνθανόμενοι περὶ τὸν Ἑλλήσποντον ὑπάρχειν ἁπάσας τὰς τῶν Ἀθηναίων δυνάμεις, ἐστράτευσαν ἐπὶ Πύλον, ἣν Μεσσήνιοι φρουρᾷ κατεῖχον, κατὰ μὲν θάλατταν ἕνδεκα ναυσίν, ὧν ἦσαν αἱ μὲν ἀπὸ Σικελίας πέντε, ἓξ δὲ ἐκ τῶν πολιτῶν πεπληρωμέναι· πεζῇ δὲ παρήγαγον ἱκανὴν δύναμιν, καὶ περιστρατοπεδεύσαντες τὸ φρούριον ἐπόρθουν ἅμα καὶ κατὰ γῆν καὶ κατὰ θάλατταν.
And the Lacedaemonians, learning that all the forces of the Athenians were around the Hellespont, marched against Pylos, which the Messenians held with a garrison, by sea indeed with eleven ships, of which five were from Sicily and six manned from their citizens; and by land they led a sufficient force, and besieging the fortress, they plundered it at the same time by both land and sea.
§13.64.6ἃ δὴ πυθόμενος ὁ τῶν Ἀθηναίων δῆμος ἐξαπέστειλε τοῖς πολιορκουμένοις εἰς βοήθειαν ναῦς τριάκοντα καὶ στρατηγὸν Ἄνυτον τὸν Ἀνθεμίωνος.
Learning this, the Athenian people sent out to the besieged for help thirty ships and Anytus the son of Anthemion as general.
οὗτος μὲν οὖν ἐκπλεύσας, καὶ διά τινας χειμῶνας οὐ δυνηθεὶς τὸν Μαλέαν κάμψαι, ἀνέπλευσεν εἰς Ἀθήνας.
He, then, having sailed out, and not being able to double Malea because of certain storms, sailed back to Athens.
ἐφʼ οἷς ὁ μὲν δῆμος ὀργισθείς, καὶ καταιτιασάμενος αὐτοῦ προδοσίαν, μετέστησεν εἰς κρίσιν· ὁ δʼ Ἄνυτος ἰσχυρῶς κινδυνεύων ἐρρύσατο χρήμασι τὴν ἰδίαν ψυχήν, καὶ πρῶτος Ἀθηναίων δοκεῖ δικαστήριον δωροδοκῆσαι.
At which the people, being angry and accusing him of treason, brought him to trial; but Anytus, being in great danger, saved his own life with money, and is thought to be the first of the Athenians to bribe a court.
§13.64.7οἱ δʼ ἐν τῇ Πύλῳ Μεσσήνιοι μέχρι μέν τινος ἀντεῖχον, προσδοκῶντες παρὰ τῶν Ἀθηναίων βοήθειαν· ὡς δʼ οἱ μὲν πολέμιοι τὰς προσβολὰς ἐκ διαδοχῆς ἐποιοῦντο, τῶν δὲ ἰδίων οἱ μὲν ἐκ τῶν τραυμάτων ἀπέθνησκον, οἱ δʼ ἐκ τῆς σιτοδείας κακῶς ἀπήλλαττον, ὑπόσπονδοι τὸν τόπον ἐξέλιπον.
And the Messenians in Pylos held out for a time, expecting help from the Athenians; but when the enemy made attacks in succession, and of their own men some were dying from wounds and others were suffering severely from lack of food, they abandoned the place under a truce.
Λακεδαιμόνιοι μὲν οὖν ἐγκρατεῖς ἐγένοντο τῆς Πύλου, πεντεκαίδεκα ἔτη τῶν Ἀθηναίων αὐτὴν κατεσχηκότων, ἀφʼ ὅτου Δημοσθένης αὐτὴν ἐτείχισεν.
So the Lacedaemonians became masters of Pylos, after the Athenians had held it for fifteen years from the time when Demosthenes fortified it.
