2.40 Inasmuch as the Persian coinage was stamped with the figure of a bowman, he said, as he was breaking camp, that he was being driven out of Asia by the king with thirty thousand bowmen; for such was the number of gold pieces brought to Athens and Thebes through Timocrates and distributed among the popular leaders; and thus the people were stirred to hostilities against the Spartans. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. xv. (604 C); Life of Artaxerxes, chap. xx. (1021 D); Xenophon, Hellenica, iii. 5. 1. Xenophon (l.c.) says that the Persian gold went to Thebes, Corinth, and Argos, and the Athenians were eager for the war (naturally, as it was a war of revenge) without being bribed.

2.41 He wrote a letter in reply to the Ephors as follows:

2.41 Agesilaus to the Ephors greeting.

2.41 We hae conquered the maist pairt of Asia, and made the barbarians rin, an’ in Ionia we hae built mony an armed camp. But gin ye bid me come back as ye hae set the limit, I’ll come after the letter, or I’ll mebbe get there afore it; for I rule, no for masel’, but for the State and oor allies. An a mori truly rules richt whan he gangs wi’ the laws an the Ephors or whatever ither rulers there may be in the State. The letter contains a suspicious number of words for a Laconic letter!
