, Nach diesem Ereigniß, als nach einem ganz unerwarteten
Gelingen, wuchs den Syrakusanern wieder der Muth, wje auch schon
früher und sie sandten den Sikanos mit fünfzehn Schiffen gegen
Akragas, wo Aufruhr, herrschte, damit er diese Stadt-wo möglich
unterwerfe. Gylippos aber ging zum zweiten Mal zu Land in ¹²
die andern Gegenden SicilienS, um noch weitere Heeresmacht auf ³
zubringen, denn er hoffte jetzt, auch die Verschanzungen der Athener
mit Gewalt zu nehmen, nachdem es ihm bei Epipolä so erwünscht
gegangen. >

[1] μετὰ δὲ τοῦτο οἱ μὲν Συρακόσιοι ὡς ἐπὶ ἀπροσδοκήτῳ εὐπραγίᾳ πάλιν αὖ ἀναρρωσθέντες, ὥσπερ καὶ πρότερον, ἐς μὲν Ἀκράγαντα στασιάζοντα πέντε καὶ δέκα ναυσὶ Σικανὸν ἀπέστειλαν, ὅπως ὑπαγάγοιτο τὴν πόλιν, εἰ δύναιτο· Γύλιππος δὲ κατὰ γῆν ἐς τὴν ἄλλην Σικελίαν ᾤχετο αὖθις, ἄξων στρατιὰν ἔτι, ὡς ἐν ἐλπίδι ὢν καὶ τὰ τείχη τῶν Ἀθηναίων αἱρήσειν βίᾳ, ἐπειδὴ τὰ ἐν ταῖς Ἐπιπολαῖς οὕτω ξυνέβη.

[1] After this, the Syracusians, having by such unlooked-for prosperity recovered their former courage, sent Sicanus with fifteen galleys to Agrigentum, being in sedition, to bring that city, if they could, to their obedience. And Gylippus went again to the Sicilian cities by land to raise yet another army, as being in hope to take the camp of the Athenians by assault, considering how the matter had gone in Epipolae.

[1] After this the Syracusans, recovering their old confidence at such an unexpected stroke of good fortune, despatched Sicanus with fifteen ships to Agrigentum where there was a revolution, to induce if possible the city to join them; while Gylippus again went by land into the rest of Sicily to bring up reinforcements, being now in hope of taking the Athenian lines by storm, after the result of the affair on Epipolae.

Hierauf schickten die Syrakuser, denen nach dem unver
hofften Siege auch diesmal wieder der Mut geschwollen war,
Sikanos mit fünfzehn Schiffen nach Akragas, wo damals zwei
Parteien einander bekämpften, um die Stadt womöglich in ihre
Gewalt zu bringen. Gylippos aber bereiste zu Lande die anderen
sizilischen Städte zum zweitenmal, nur dort noch weitere Ver
stärkungen aufzubieten, da er, nachdem die Sache auf Epipolai
so gut abgelaufen, sich auch der Festungswerke der Athener
zu bemächtigen hoffte.

XLVI. Après ce succès inespéré, les Syracusains retrouvèrent leur première ardeur. Ils envoyèrent à Agrigente, alors en proie aux séditions, quinze vaisseaux sous les ordres de Sicanos, afin de soumettre cette ville, s’il était possible. Gylippe recommença à parcourir par terre le reste de la Sicile, afin d’en amener une nouvelle armée. Cette heureuse issue de l’affaire d’Épi- polæ lui donnait l’espoir d'enlever de vive force les retranchements mêmes des Athéniens.

Ce succès inespéré rendit aux Syracusains leur première ardeur. Ils envoyèrent à Agrigente, alors en dissension, Sicanos avec quinze vaisseaux, pour essayer de soumettre cette ville. Gylippe parcourut derechef la Sicile, afin d’en tirer de nouveaux renforts. Depuis l’affaire des Ëpipoles, il ne désespérait pas d’enlever de haute lutte les retranchements des ennemis.

[1] After this the Syracusans, their earlier confidence now being restored as a result of their unexpected good fortune, sent Sicanus with fifteen ships to Agrigentum, which was in a state of revolution, in order that he might if possible win over that city; and Gylippus went out once more by land to the other parts of Sicily to secure additional troops, being in hope that he could even carry the walls of the Athenians by storm, now that the engagement on Epipolae had turned out thus.

[1] After this, the Syracusans being again, as before, restored to confidence on the strength of such unexpected good fortune, despatched Sicanus with fifteen ships to Acragas, which was torn by factions, to induce the city to join them, if he could: while Gylippus again went by land to the other parts of Sicily to bring more forces, being in hope of even taking the Athenian lines by storm, since the affair on Epipolae had turned out as it did.

Dopo ciò i Siracusani rinvigoriti, come la prima volta, da quella inaspettata fortuna y spedirono con quindici navi Sicauo ad Acragante che avea levato romore, affinchè tentasse di sottomettere quella città. E Gilippo scorreva nuovamente per terra la Sicilia , per cavarne altre genti; perchè dopo il fatto dell' R pi poi e, era venuta nella speranza di espugnare anche le fortificazioni deeli Ateniesi.
