§36.33.1per idem tempus Philippus rex proficiscentem consulem ad Naupactum percunctatus, si se interim, quae defecissent ab societate Romana, urbes recipere vellet, §36.33.2permittente eo ad Demetriadem copias admovit haud ignarus, quanta ibi tum turbatio esset.
Around the same time, King Philip, having inquired of the consul who was setting out for Naupactus, whether he wished him in the meantime to recover the cities which had revolted from the Roman alliance, with his permission, moved his forces toward Demetrias, being by no means ignorant of how great a state of confusion was there at that time.
§36.33.3destituti enim ab omni spe, cum desertos se ab Antiocho, spem nullam in Aetolis esse cernerent, dies noctesque aut Philippi hostis adventum aut infestiorem etiam, quo iustius irati erant, Romanorum expectabant.
For, destitute of all hope, when they perceived that they were deserted by Antiochus and that there was no hope in the Aetolians, they were expecting day night either the arrival of their enemy Philip, or the even more hostile arrival of the Romans, who were angry with more justice.
§36.33.4turba erat ibi incondita regiorum, qui primo pauci in praesidio relicti, postea plures, plerique inermes, ex proelio adverso fuga delati, nec virium nec animi satis ad obsidionem tolerandam habebant; §36.33.5itaque praemissis a Philippo, qui spem impetrabilis veniae ostendebant, responderunt patere portas regi.
There was there a disorderly crowd of the king's men, who, at first a few left in the garrison, afterwards more, most of them unarmed, carried there in flight from the adverse battle, had neither enough strength nor spirit to endure a siege; therefore, to those sent ahead by Philip, who held out hope of a pardon that could be obtained, they replied that the gates were open to the king.
§36.33.6ad primum eius ingressum principum quidam urbe excesserunt, Eurylochus mortem sibi conscivit.
Upon his first entrance, some of the leading men departed from the city, and Eurylochus committed suicide.
Antiochi milites — sic enim pacti erant — per Macedoniam Thraeciamque prosequentibus Macedonibus, ne quis eos violaret, Lysimachiam deducti sunt.
Antiochus' soldiers — for so they had agreed — were conducted to Lysimachia through Macedonia and Thrace under the escort of the Macedonians, so that no one should harm them.
§36.33.7erant et paucae naves Demetriade, quibus praeerat Isidorus; eae quoque cum praefecto suo dimissae sunt.
There were also a few ships at Demetrias, which Isidorus commanded; these also were dismissed along with their commander.
inde Dolopiam et Aperantiam et Perrhaebiae quasdam civitates recipit.
From there, he recovered Dolopia, Aperantia, and certain states of Perrhaebia.
