2.12 Finding himself inferior in horsemen, he retreated to Ephesus, and there made proclamation to the men of means that they should each provide a horse and a man, and thus gain their own release from service. As a result there were collected, in a very short time, both horses and capable men in place of wealthy cowards. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. ix. (600 D); Xenophon, Hellenica, iii. 4. 15, and Agesilaus, 1. 24. Agesilaus said he was emulating Agamemnon; for Agamemnon accepted a good mare and released from service a base man of wealth. Cf. Moralia, 32 F. The reference is to Homer, Il. xxiii. 296 ff.

2.13 When, in obedience to his orders that the prisoners of war be sold naked, those charged with selling the spoils so offered them, there were many buyers for the clothing, but as for the prisoners’ bodies, altogether white and soft because of their indoor life, the buyers derided them as useless and worthless. And Agesilaus, stepping up, said, These are the things for which you fight, and these are the men whom you fight. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. ix. (600 E); Xenophon, Hellenica, iii. 4. 19. Agesilaus, 1. 28: Polyaenus ii. 1. 5; Athenaeus, 550 E.

2.14 Having routed Tissaphernes in the Lydia n country and slain a great many of his men, he proceeded to overrun the king’s country. The king sent money to him, and in return asked for a cessation of hostilities, but Agesilaus said that the State alone had the power to make peace, and that it gave him more pleasure to enrich his soldiers than to be rich himself, and that he thought it a grand thing that the Greeks did not accept gifts from the enemy, but took spoils instead. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. x. (601 A-B), where the remark is made to Tithraustes, who was sent by the king to supplant Tissaphernes. Cf. also Xenophon, Hellenica, iii. 4. 25, and Agesilaus 4.6.
