50.3 But as soon as the Corinthians had chased the Corcyraeans to the shore, they turned to the wrecks and their own dead,The bodies of the dead which were on the disabled ships. and they were able to recover most of them and to fetch them to Sybota, an unused harbour of Thesprotia, whither the land forces of the barbarians had come to their aid. When they had accomplished this, they got their forces together and sailed once more against the Corcyraeans.
50.4 And they, with such of their vessels as were seaworthy and all the rest that had not been engaged, together with the Attic ships, on their part also sailed to meet them, fearing that they would attempt to disembark on their territory.
50.5 It was now late and the paean had been sounded for the onset, when the Corinthians suddenly began to back water; for they sighted twenty Attic ships approaching, which the Athenians had sent out after the ten as a reinforcement, fearing just what happened, namely that the Corcyraeans would be defeated and their own ten ships would be too few to help them.
51.1 So when the Corinthians sighted these ships before the Corcyraeans did, suspecting that they were from Athens and that there were more of them than they saw, they began to withdraw.
51.2 For the Corcyraeans, however, the Athenian ships were sailing up more out of view and could not be seen by them, and so they wondered that the Corinthians were backing water, until some of them caught sight of the ships and said, " Yonder are ships sailing up."
51.3 Then they too retreated—for it was already getting dark; whereupon the Corinthians put their ships about and broke offthe action.
51.4 Thus they separated, the sea-fight ending at nightfall. And while the Corcyraeans were encamping at Leucimne, the twenty ships from Athens, under the command of Glaucon son of Leagrus and Andocides son of Leogoras, having made their way through the corpses and the wrecks, sailed down to the camp not long after they were sighted.
