and_o circumstance_n against_o a_o indirect_a and_o dubious_a proof_n build_v chief_o on_o a_o disputable_a passage_n in_o herodotus_n we_o have_v the_o express_v and_o full_a and_o undoubted_a

i_o crave_v leave_n to_o question_n whether_o we_o can_v rely_v so_o certain_o upon_o pausanias_n authority_n in_o this_o case_n for_o first_o though_o thucydides_n do_v not_o fix_v the_o time_n of_o
