§14.106.1ἐπὶ δὲ Ῥήγιον ἀναζεύξαντος αὐτοῦ, καὶ μετὰ τῆς δυνάμεως παρεσκευασμένου πολιορκεῖν διὰ τὴν περὶ τῆς ἐπιγαμίας ὕβριν, ἀγωνία πολλὴ κατεῖχε τοὺς Ῥηγίνους· οὔτε γὰρ συμμάχους οὔτε δύναμιν ἀξιόμαχον εἶχον, πρὸς δὲ τούτοις ᾔδεισαν ὅτι τῆς πόλεως ἁλούσης οὔτʼ ἔλεος οὔτε δέησις αὐτοῖς ἀπελείπετο.
When he marched against Rhegium and, with his army, prepared to besiege it because of the insult concerning the marriage alliance, great anxiety seized the Rhegians; for they had neither allies nor a force capable of fighting, and in addition to this, they knew that if the city were captured, neither mercy nor room for entreaty would be left to them.
§14.106.2διόπερ ἔκριναν ἀποστεῖλαι πρέσβεις τοὺς δεησομένους μετρίως αὐτοῖς χρήσασθαι καὶ παρακαλέσαι μηδὲν περὶ αὐτῶν ὑπὲρ ἄνθρωπον βουλεύσασθαι.

§14.106.3ὁ δὲ Διονύσιος τριακόσια τάλαντα πραξάμενος καὶ τὰς ναῦς ἁπάσας παραλαβὼν οὔσας ἑβδομήκοντα, προσέταξεν ἑκατὸν ὁμήρους δοῦναι δοθέντων δὲ πάντων ἀνέζευξεν ἐπὶ Καυλωνίαν.
But Dionysius, having exacted three hundred talents and taken over all their ships, which numbered seventy, commanded them to give one hundred hostages; and when all these had been given, he marched against Caulonia.
ταύτης δὲ τοὺς μὲν ἐνοικοῦντας εἰς Συρακούσας μετῴκισε καὶ πολιτείαν δοὺς πέντε ἔτη συνεχώρησεν ἀτελεῖς εἶναι, τὴν δὲ πόλιν κατασκάψας τοῖς Λοκροῖς τὴν χώραν τῶν Καυλωνιατῶν ἐδωρήσατο.
He relocated the inhabitants of this city to Syracuse, and having granted them citizenship, he permitted them to be exempt from taxes for five years; but having razed the city to the ground, he presented the territory of the Caulonians to the Locrians.
§14.106.4Ῥωμαῖοι δὲ Λιφοίκουαν πόλιν ἐκ τοῦ τῶν Αἰκῶν ἔθνους ἑλόντες, κατὰ τὰς τῶν ὑπάτων εὐχὰς μέγαν ἀγῶνα τῷ Διὶ συνετέλεσαν.
Meanwhile, the Romans, having captured the city of Liphoecua from the nation of the Aequi, celebrated great games in honor of Zeus, in accordance with the vows of the consuls.
