§22.11.1ὅτι τῶν περὶ τὸν Καικίλιον ἀνακεχωρηκότων ἐκ τῆς Ἑλλάδος καὶ διασεσαφηκότων τῇ συγκλήτῳ περί τε τῶν κατὰ Μακεδονίαν καὶ τῶν κατὰ Πελοπόννησον, εἰσῆγον εἰς τὴν σύγκλητον τοὺς περὶ τούτων παραγεγονότας πρεσβευτάς.
When Caecilius and his suite had returned from Greece and had reported in detail to the senate concerning the affairs of Macedonia and the Peloponnese, they introduced into the senate the envoys who had arrived concerning these matters.
§22.11.2εἰσελθόντων δὲ πρῶτον τῶν παρὰ τοῦ Φιλίππου καὶ παρʼ Εὐμένους, ἔτι δὲ τῶν ἐξ Αἴνου καὶ Μαρωνείας φυγάδων, καὶ ποιησαμένων τοὺς λόγους ἀκολούθως τοῖς ἐν Θετταλονίκῃ ῥηθεῖσιν ἐπὶ τῶν περὶ τὸν Καικίλιον, §22.11.3ἔδοξε τῇ συγκλήτῳ πέμπειν πάλιν ἄλλους πρεσβευτὰς πρὸς τὸν Φίλιππον τοὺς ἐπισκεψομένους πρῶτον μὲν εἰ παρακεχώρηκε τῶν ἐν Θετταλίᾳ καὶ Περραιβίᾳ πόλεων κατὰ τὴν τῶν περὶ τὸν Καικίλιον ἀπόκρισιν, §22.11.4εἶτα τοὺς ἐπιτάξοντας αὐτῷ τὰς φρουρὰς ἐξάγειν ἐξ Αἴνου καὶ Μαρωνείας, καὶ συλλήβδην ἀποβαίνειν ἀπὸ τῶν παραθαλαττίων τῆς Θρᾴκης ἐρυμάτων καὶ τόπων καὶ πόλεων.
And when first the envoys from Philip and from Eumenes entered, and furthermore the exiles from Aenus and Maroneia, and made their speeches in accordance with what had been said in Thessalonica before Caecilius and his colleagues, it resolved the senate to send again other envoys to Philip, who should inspect first whether he had evacuated the cities in Thessaly and Perrhaebia in accordance with the answer of Caecilius and his colleagues, and then who should order him to withdraw his garrisons from Aenus and Maroneia, and in short to depart from the coastal forts, districts, and cities of Thrace.
§22.11.5μετὰ δὲ τούτους εἰσῆγον τοὺς ἀπὸ Πελοποννήσου παραγεγονότας.
After these, they introduced those who had arrived from the Peloponnese.
§22.11.6οἵ τε γὰρ Ἀχαιοὶ πρεσβευτὰς ἀπεστάλκεισαν τοὺς περὶ Ἀπολλωνίδαν τὸν Σικυώνιον δικαιολογησομένους πρὸς τὸν Καικίλιον ὑπὲρ τοῦ μὴ λαβεῖν αὐτὸν ἀπόκρισιν καὶ καθόλου διδάξοντας ὑπὲρ τῶν κατὰ Λακεδαίμονα πραγμάτων, §22.11.7ἔκ τε τῆς Σπάρτης Ἀρεὺς καὶ Ἀλκιβιάδης ἐπρέσβευσαν· οὗτοι δʼ ἦσαν τῶν ἀρχαίων φυγάδων τῶν ὑπὸ τοῦ Φιλοποίμενος καὶ τῶν Ἀχαιῶν νεωστὶ κατηγμένων εἰς τὴν οἰκείαν.
For the Achaeans had sent as envoys Apollonidas of Sicyon and his companions, to defend themselves before Caecilius for his not having received an answer, and in general to instruct them concerning the affairs of Lacedaemon; and from Sparta, Areus and Alcibiades went as envoys, who were among the old exiles recently restored to their own country by Philopoemen and the Achaeans.
§22.11.8ὃ καὶ μάλιστα τοὺς Ἀχαιοὺς εἰς ὀργὴν ἦγε τῷ δοκεῖν, μεγάλης οὔσης καὶ προσφάτου τῆς εἰς τοὺς φυγάδας εὐεργεσίας, ἐξ αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τοσοῦτον ἀχαριστεῖσθαι παρʼ αὐτοῖς ὥστε καὶ καταπρεσβεύειν καὶ κατηγορίαν ποιεῖσθαι πρὸς τοὺς κρατοῦντας τῶν ἀνελπίστως αὐτοὺς σωσάντων καὶ καταγαγόντων εἰς τὴν πατρίδα.
This indeed especially drove the Achaeans to anger, because it seemed that, though the benefit to the exiles was great and recent, immediately after it such ingratitude was shown by them that they even sent a counter-embassy and made an accusation before the ruling power against those who had unexpectedly saved them and restored them to their fatherland.
