giue chace toward the Gates of the Citadell For they threw downe mightie Timber logs from aboue and made it vnsafe either to stand still or goe off and the night approching brought terror with it Fighting in this sort and irresolued what to doe some God gaue a meanes of safetie For suddainly a House on the right hand it was vnknowne by whose kindling burst out into a flame The House no sooner fell but the enemies that were gotten vp to the Houses on the right hand shifted away When Xenophon saw this worke of Fortune he commanded the Houses on the left hand to be likewise fired which being made of Wood caught fire quickly whereby the enemie forsooke the Houses on that side also and the Armie was annoied only by those in Front who doubtlesse were like to fall vpon the Reare in their retreat and departure Here Xenophon gaue order that all who were without the reach of missiue weapons should bring Wood and lay it betwixt the enemie and them and when the store was sufficient it was set on fire The Houses were also fired that stood next the Rampier of the Towne ditch that the enemie might be busied on all sides So by the helpe of fire betwixt the enemie and them they made a hard retreat With this fire were consumed the whole Citie the Houses Turrets Rampier and all things else except the Citadell The next day the Grecians hauing gained sufficient prouision retired toward their Campe but because they feared the way that led toward Trapezond as being steepe and narrow they laid a false ambush There was in the Campe a Mysian by nation and name who taking vnto him foure or fiue Cretans remained in a wooddy plat of ground making semblance to the enemie as though he meant to hide himselfe Their Targets being of Brasse cast glimmering light here and there thorow the Wood which the enemie descrying feared as much as if it had been a true ambush In the meane time the Armie was descended into good ground and the Mysian thinking they had now gained way enough gaue the word to his companions euerie man to shift away amaine and immediatly he his consorts fled The Cretans forsaking the ordinarie way for they said the enemie might out-run them and take them prisoners and conueying themselues into Woods and tumbling downe thorow steepe and rough Forrests came safe to the Armie but the Mysian flying in the ordinarie way cried out for succour He was rescued brought away wounded and the Souldiers that rescued him retired by little and little casting Darts hauing also amongst them a few Cretans who shot at the enemie So they came all safe to the Campe. When neither Cherisophus returned and no more prouision was to be found for the Campe they decreed to proceed on their iourney and put on ship-board the sicke and those that were aboue fortie yeeres of age and children and women and vessels vnnecessary for the iourney and shipping likewise Philesius and Sophonetus the eldest of the Coronels they committed the charge of all to them The rest went on by Land The way was prepared and made plaine and euen and in three daies march they reached as farre as Cerasunt a Grecian Citie standing vpon the Sea being a Colonie of the Sinopeans situate in the Colchian Countrey Here they remained ten dayes and tooke a muster of Armes and of the number of their people and found 8600 men So many were left of the 10000 or thereabouts that ascended with Cyrus into Persia the rest were consumed by the enemies hand and by Snow and some by sicknesse Here also they diuided the money that arose out of the sale of Captiues and the Coronels tooke into their hands the tenth part which was seuered as an offering to be made to Apollo and Diana of Ephesus euerie one keeping and preseruing a share for the gods Neon the Asinean was appointed to receiue the portion which should haue been deliuered to Cherisophus Xenophon therefore making readie the offering for Apollo bestowed and hallowed it in the treasurie of the Athenians at Delphos and inscribed thereon both his owne name and the name of Proxenus the Baeotian who was put to death with Clearchus For Proxenus was Xenophons Host. The offring for Diana of Ephesus because himselfe was like to incurre hazard at such time as he departed out of Asia toward Baeotia with Agesila●s he left with Megabyzus Dianaes Priest and willed him in case himselfe escaped the danger to make restitution to his owne hands if he miscaried to consecrate it to Diana and bestow it in such sort as in his opinion should be most acceptable to the goddesse But af●erward when Xenophon was banished his country and dwelled now at Scylunt which Towne was built by the Lacedemonians neere to Olympia Megabyzus came to Olympia to see the Games and restored to Xenophon the money left in his custodie and Xenophon receiuing it bought a portion of Land for the goddesse in a place designed by Apollo thorow which the Riuer Sellenus runneth At Ephesus also there runneth a Riuer Sellenus hard by Dianaes Temple and either of these Riuers nourisheth both other fish fish with shels But in the Scyluntine portion of Land there are beasts of all sorts fit to be hunted He built a temple also and an altar with the consecrated mony and from thenceforth gathering alwaies the tenth of the fruits growing on the land he offered sacrifice to Diana and all the Citizens and neere-dwellers as well men as women are partakers of the feast The goddesse alloweth them that come meale bread wine and iunkets and a portion of the flesh of those beasts which are either taken from the consecrated ground and sacrificed or else killed in hunting The sonnes of Xenopho● and of other Citizens exercise the hunting against the time of the feast and other men also hunt with them such as are desirous of the sport There are taken partly out of the Holy-land partly out of Phaloe wilde Boares Goats and Red-deere The place lieth in the way as you goe from Lacedemon to Olympia distant about twentie Furlongs from the Temple of Olympian Iupiter There are in the consecrated ground groues and mountaines stored with trees sufficient to nourish hogs and goats and sheepe and horses so that the carriage-beasts of such as come to the feast are largely prouided for About the Temple it selfe there is a groue of fruit-trees of all kindes that are fit to be eaten after they wax ripe The Temple it selfe as much as a little one may resemble a great is like to the Ephesian Temple and the Image made of Cypres like to the golden Image at Ephesus By the Temple is a pillar erected inscribed with these words The ground consecrated to Diana He that hath the possession and vse of it let him pay the tenth of euery yeares increase and with the ouer-plus repaire and maintaine
he being desirous to satisfie tooke a muster of the Grecians and Barbarians in the Plaine neere adioyning He commanded the Grecians to order and range themselues according to their wonted manner of embattailing euerie Leader directing his owne Souldiers They were therefore ordered foure in depth Menon those with him had the right Wing Clearchus and his Souldiers the left The other Commanders the middest Cyrus and the Queene he in his Chariot she in her Coach rid vp and downe and first viewed the Barbarians who passed by and aduanced in Troops and Companies and then afterward the Grecians They had euerie man a Brazen Head-peece a Scarlet Coat Greues and a polished and bright Target When he had passed by all staying his Chariot before the middest of the Phalange he sent Pigres his Interpreter to the Grecian Coronels willing them to command a Charge as if they were to giue vpon the Enemie and to moue forward with the whole Phalange who gaue warning hereof to their Souldiers No sooner therefore had the Trumpet sounded but they straightwayes aduanced holding out their weapons as in a Charge and then mending their pace and giuing a shout they fell of themselues into a Plaine running toward their Tents Both the other Barbarians were taken with sodaine feare and also the Cilician Queene forsooke her Coach and the Market-folke leauing their wares behind shifted away euerie one to saue himselfe The Grecians not without laughter held on forward to their Tents The Cilician Queene wondred not a little at the beautie and order of the Armie and Cyrus tooke as much pleasure to behold the Barbarians put into such a feare by the Grecians From hence in three encampings he marched 20 Parasangs and came to Iconium the last Citie of Phrygia He stayed there three dayes and from hence he marched in fiue encampings thorow Lycaonia 30 Parasangs He suffered the Grecians to spoile this Countrey as Enemie From hence Cyrus sent away the Cilician Queene by the neerest way to Cilicia and with her he sent Menons Regiment and Menon the Thessalian himselfe Cyrus with the rest marched thorow Cappadocia 25 Parasangs in foure encampings as farre as Dana a great wealthy and well peopled Citie Here he remained three dayes within which time he put to death Megaphernes a Persian the Kings Purple Dyer and another Ruler of great authority charging them with Treason against himselfe From hence they attempted to breake into Cilicia but the entrance was so narrow that more than one Chariot could not passe at once and withall exceeding steepe and vnpassable for an Armie in case resistance were made The fame was that Syennesis had planted himselfe in the highest of the Straights to defend the passage which was the cause that the Armie staid in the Plaine one day The next day there came a Messenger bringing tydings that Syennesis had left the Straights after he perceiued that Menons Troopes were alreadie beyond the Mountaines in Cilicia and heard that a Fleet of Lacedemonian Gallies and another of Cyrus were vnder saile to passe from Ionia to Cilicia vnder the leading of Tamon Cyrus ascended the Mountaines without resistance of any Man and found the Tents yet standing of those that were in guard of the Mountaines From thence he descended into a great beautifull and well watered Plaine and replenished with all manner of Trees and with Vines It beareth abundance of Sesamum and Panick and Millet and Wheat and Barley It is inuironed on euerie side from Sea to Sea with abrupt and high Mountaines Descending from this Mountaine in foure encampings he marched 25 Parasangs thorow Cilicia as farre as Tarsus a great and rich Citie of Cilicia In that Citie was the Palace of Syennesis King of Cilicia Thorow the middest of this Citie runneth the Riuer named Cydnus being 200 foot in breadth The Inhabitants thereof excepting such as bought and sold left the Citie and fled to the Mountaines with Syennesis But the Inhabitants of Solos and Issos which stand neere the Sea held themselues to their homes Epiaxa the Wife of Syennesis arriued at Tarsus fiue dayes before Cyrus But in the tops of the Mountaines that stretcht towards the Plain two 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 or Companies of Menons Regiment were lost Some say that being busie in pillage they were cut off by the Cilicians Other some that they were left behind not able to find the rest of the Troops nor the waies which they were to passe and were lost in wandring vp and downe Their number was about 100 armed Foot The rest comming to Tarsus sacked the Citie and the Palace in it in a rage for the losse of their Companions Cyrus entring the Citie sent for Syennesis who returned answer that as he neuer yet had committed himselfe to the hands of a Man better than himselfe so he would not now begin In which minde he continued till his Wife perswaded him to the contrarie and till he had taken assurance from Cyrus After that they met Syennesis gaue Cyrus great summes to vphold his Armie Cyrus againe gaue him gifts such as he thought honourable and much esteemed amongst Kings As namely a Horse with a golden bitt a Chaine of gold Bracelets a Sword decked with gold a Persian garment and freedome of his Land from spoile As also restitution of the Slaues which were taken in spoile by the Souldiers wheresoeuer he could find them Cyrus and the Armie remained here 20 dayes for the Souldiers plainly denied to goe any further imagining now they were led against the King which they said was no part of their agreement Clearchus was the first that went about to force his Souldiers to proceed but they as soone as he offered to goe forward cast Stones at him and at his carriage Beasts And surely he hardly escaped stoning But afterward perceiuing it was in vaine to vse force he called his Souldiers to an assembly and first he stood weeping a good time which they seeing wondred at and kept silence Afterwards he spake thus My fellow Souldiers wonder not that the present state of this businesse toucheth me to the quicke for Cyrus hath made himselfe mine Host being banished out of my Countrey and not only done me other honours but also giuen me 10000 Darickes which I taking hoorded not vp for mine owne priuate vse and pleasure but disbursed them vpon you And first I made warre vpon the Thracians and with your helpes reuenged the wrongs they did vnto Greece chasing them out of Cheronesus whilst they endeuoured to take that Land from the Grecians But when Cyrus called for me I tooke you with me and went to Cyrus to the end in his need to shew my selfe thankful for his former kindnesse and fauours towards me But since you please to goe no further I must of necessitie either forsake you and apply my selfe to his friendship or deceiue his hopes and remaine still with you
