Ἀποφθέγματα Λακωνικά Plutarch
2.45 When he learned that a battle had been fought in the vicinity of Corinth, In 304 B.C. Cf. Xenophon, Hellenica, iv. 2. 18 ff. and that only a very few of the Spartans had fallen, but a vast number of the Corinthians and Athenians and the others on their side, he was not observed to be overjoyful or elated at the victory, but with a very deep sigh said, Hech, sirs, for Greece, wha her ane sel’ has killed sae mony men—as mony as micht pit doon a’ the barbarians. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. xv. (604 ); Moralia, 191 A (6), supra, and the note; Xenophon, Hellenica, iv. 3. 1, Agesilaus, 7.4; Diodorus, xiv. 86; Cornelius Nepos, xvii., Agesilaus, 5. 2.
2.46 When the Pharsalians beset him and harassed his army, he routed them with five hundred horsemen, and set up a trophy at the foot of Mount Narthacium. And he was better satisfied with this victory than with all others, because he himself by his own efforts had built up this company of cavalry, See 209 B, supra. and with this alone he had overcome those who took the greatest pride in horsemanship. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. xvi. (605 A); Xenophon, Hellenica, iv. 3. 3-9, Agesilaus, 2. 2-5.
2.47 Diphridas One of the Ephors. brought word to him from home that he should at once, as he passed by, invade Boeotia. It had been his purpose to do this later after making more adequate preparation, but he did not disobey those in authority, and, after sending for two divisions of the army in the field at Corinth, he entered Boeotia. At Coroneia he engaged in battle Thebans, Athenians, Argives, Corinthians, and the two Locrian peoples, and, although he was in desperate straits by reason of the many wounds in his body, he was victorious in the greatest battle, as Xenophon says, Hellenica, iv. 3. 16, Agesilaus, 2. 9. Xenophon took part in the battle (Anabasis, v. 3. 6). of those fought in his day. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chaps. xvii. and xviii. (605 A-F); Xenophon, Hellenica, iv. 3. 15-20, Agesilaus, 2. 9-16.
