in so many Battels fought betwixt the Lacedoemonians and the other Grecians none but Cleombrotus was kill'd being wounded with a Javelin at the Battel of Leuctres a little before the days of King Philip of Macedon I am not ignorant that the Messenians affirm Theopompus was also slain by their Aristomenes but the Lacedoemonians deny it and say He was only wounded Be it as it will 't is certain at least that Agis was the first King put to death by the Epori with a form and pretence of Justice and only for having endeavour'd to reduce them to their original Institution a Design well becoming the Courage of a noble Spartan Thus Agis had the Fortune to be ill treated by his Enemies and worse by his Friends for if he had reason to complain of Leonidas whose Life he had sav'd much more of Amphares in whose Friendship he repos'd the highest Confidence so unmercifully was he dealt with by others who being himself of a most mild and generous Disposition did deserve to be belov'd by all Mankind THE LIFE OF CLEOMENES Translated from the Greek by Mr. Creech Fellow of All-Souls Colledge in Oxford THus fell Agis His Brother Archidamus was too quick for Leonidas and sav'd himself by a timely Retreat But his Wife then newly brought to Bed the Tyrant forc'd her from her own House and compell'd her to marry his Son Cleomenes though at that time too young for a Wife for he was unwilling that any one else should have her she being Heiress to her Father Gylippus's great Estate for Person the finest Woman in all Greece very good-natur'd of an exemplary Life and therefore they say she did all she could that she might not be compell'd to this Match Being thus married to Cleomenes she hated Leonidas but to the Youth she show'd her self a kind and obliging Wife He as soon as they came together began to love her very much and the constant Kindness that she still retain'd for the memory of Agis wrought somewhat of Concern in the young Man for him so that he would often enquire of her concerning what had pass'd and attentively listen to the Story of Agis's Designs Now Cleomenes had a generous and great Soul he was as temperate and moderate in his Pleasures as Agis but not so very cautious circumspect and gentle a spur of Passion always gall'd him and his eargerness to pursue that which he thought good and just was violent and heady to make Men willing to obey he conceiv'd to be the best Discipline but likewise to break the stubborn and force them to be better was in his opinion commendable and brave This Disposition made him dislike the management of the City the Citizens lay dissolv'd in supine Idleness and Pleasures the King minded nothing designing if no body gave him any disturbance to wast his Time in Ease and Riot the Publick was neglected and each Man intent upon his private Gain 'T was dangerous now Agis was kill'd to mention the exercising and training of their Youth and to set up for the ancient Bravery and Equality was Treason against the State 'T is said also that Cleomenes whilst a Boy studied Philosophy under Sphoerus the Borysthenite who coming to Sparta was very diligent in instructing the Youth Spoerus was one of the chief of Zeno the Citiean's Scholars and 't is likely that he admir'd the manly Temper of Cleomenes and inflam'd his generous Ambition The ancient Leonidas as Story saith being ask'd What manner of Poet he thought Tyrtoeus reply'd An excellent one to whet the Courages of Youth for being fill'd with Fury by his Poems they daringly ventur'd on any Danger now the Stoicks Philosophy is a dangerous Incentive to hot and fiery Dispositions but being mixt with a grave and cautious Temper is very good to fix and settle the Resolutions Upon the Death of his Father Leonidas he succeeded and observing the Citizens of all sorts to be debauch'd the Rich neglecting the Publick and intent on their own Gain and Pleasure and the Poor being crampt in their private Fortunes grown unactive Cowards and not inclinable to the Spartan Institution and way of Breeding that he had only the Name of King and the Ephori all the Power was resolv'd to change the present posture of Affairs He had a Friend whose Name was Xenares his Lover such an Affection the Spartans express by the word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 him he sounded and of him he would commonly enquire What manner of King Agis was by what means and by what Assistance he began and pursu'd his Designs Xenares at first willingly comply'd with his Request and told him the whole Story with all the particular Circumstances of the Actions But when he observ'd Cleomenes to be extreamly affected at the Relation and more than ordinarily mov'd at Agis's new model of the Government and begging a repetition of the Story he at first severely chid him told him He was frantick and at last left off all sort of Familiarity and Conversation with him yet he never told any Man the cause of their Disagreement but would only say Cleomenes knew very well Cleomenes finding Xenares averse to his Designs and thinking all others to be of the same opinion consulted with none but contriv'd the whole Business by himself And considering that it would be easier to bring about an Alteration when the City was at War than when in Peace he engag'd the Commonwealth in a Quarrel with the Achoeans who had given them fair occasions to complain for Aratus a Man of the greatest Power amongst all the Achoeans design'd from the very beginning to bring all the Peloponnesians into one common Body And to effect this he undertook many Expeditions and ran through a long course of Policy for he thought this the only means to make them an equal Match for their foreign Enemies All the rest agreed to his Proposals only the Lacedoemonians the Eleans and as many of the Arcadians as inclin'd to the Spartan Interest refus'd Therefore as soon as Leonidas was dead he fell upon the Arcadians and wasted those especially that border'd on Achaia by this means designing to try the Inclinations of the Spartans and despising Cleomenes as a Youth and of no Experience in Affairs of State or War Upon this the Ephori sent Cleomenes to surprise the Athenoeum dedicated to Minerva near Belbina which is a Pass of Laconia and was then under the Jurisdiction of the Megalopolitans Cleomenes possest himself of the place and fortified it at which Action Aratus shew'd no publick Resentment but marcht by night to surprise Tegea and Orchomenium The Design fail'd for those that were to betray the Cities into his Hands doubted the Success so Aratus retreated imagining that his Design had been undiscovered But Cleomenes wrot a jeering Letter to him and desired to know as from a Friend whither he intended to march at night And Aratus answering That having understood his Design to fortifie Belbina he resolv'd
