Seeing that the Greeks would not cease from their harrying and nineteen days had passed, Timagenidas spoke as follows to the Thebans: “Men of Thebes [23.3333,38.325] (Perseus) Thebes, since the Greeks have resolved that they will not raise the siege till Thebes [23.3333,38.325] (Perseus) Thebes is taken or we are delivered to them, do not let the land of Boeotia (department), Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Boeotia increase the measure of its ills for our sake.

No, rather if it is money they desire and their demand for our surrender is but a pretext, let us give them money out of our common treasury (for it was by the common will and not ours alone that we took the Persian side).

As for the rest of the men whom the Thebans surrendered, they supposed that they would be put on trial, and were confident that they would defeat the impeachment by bribery. Pausanias, however, had that very suspicion of them, and when they were put into his hands he sent away the whole allied army and carried the men to Corinth [22.9083,37.9083] (Perseus) Corinth, where he put them to death. This is what happened at Plataea [23.2667,38.2] (Perseus) Plataea and Thebes [23.3333,38.325] (Perseus) Thebes.

Artabazus the son of Pharnaces was by now far on his way in his flight from Plataea [23.2667,38.2] (Perseus) Plataea. The Thessalians, when he came among them, entertained him hospitably and inquired of him concerning the rest of the army, knowing nothing of what had happened at Plataea [23.2667,38.2] (Perseus) Plataea.
