So ging dieser Winter zu Ende und mit ihm- das neunzehnte
Jahr dieses Krieges, den Thukydides beschrieben hat. ''

¹ Da aber mit Anfang des folgenden Sommers die Chier
allsofort die Absenkung der Schiffe betrieben, weitste auch fürchteten,
daß die Athener von ihren Absichten^ etwas merken möchten — denn
alle hatten ihre Botschaften vor den Athenern zu verheimlichen
gewußt — so schickten die Lakedämonier drei spartiatische Männer nach
Korinth, welche dafür sorgen sollten, daß die Schiffe vom jenseitigen
Meer so rasch als möglich über die Landenge nach dem Meer'auf der
Athenischen Seite gezogen würden und dann sämmtlich nach Chios
unter Segel gingen, sowohl die, welche Agis für Lesbosausrüstete,
als auch die andern. Es waren aber alle Schiffe der
Bundesgenossen, die dort zusammen kamen, an Zahl neununddreißig. '

[1] In the beginning of the next summer, because the Chians pressed to have the galley sent away and feared lest the Athenians should get notice what they were doing (for all their ambassadors went out by stealth), the Lacedaemonians send away to Corinth three Spartans to will them with all speed to transport their galleys over the isthmus to the other sea towards Athens, and to go all to Chios, as well those which Agis had made ready to go to Lesbos as the rest; the number of the galleys of the league which were then there being forty wanting one.

[1] At the beginning of the next summer the Chians were urging that the fleet should be sent off, being afraid that the Athenians, from whom all these embassies were kept a secret, might find out what was going on, and the Lacedaemonians at once sent three Spartans to Corinth to haul the ships as quickly as possible across the Isthmus from the other sea to that on the side of Athens , and to order them all to sail to Chios , those which Agis was equipping for Lesbos not excepted. The number of ships from the allied states was thirty-nine in all.

Gleich im Beginn des nächsten Frühjahres drangen die
Chier aus Furcht, die Athener könnten von den Abmachungen
Wind bekommen, auf unverzügliche Absendung der Schiffe.
Alle jene Verhandlungen waren nämlich hinter dem Rücken
der Athener geführt. Infolgedessen schickten die Lakedämonier
drei Spartiaten nach Korinth mit der Weisung, man solle die
i Schiffe von drüben schleimigst in die athenische See holen und
mit allen, sowohl den von Agis für Lesbos bestimmten wie
den übrigen, sofort nach Chios abgehen. Im ganzen zählte
die dortige Bundesflotte neununddreißig Segel.

VII. Dès le commencement de l’été suivant, les habitants de Chio pressèrent l’envoi de la flotte, dans la crainte que ces négociations ne transpirassent chez les Athéniens, à l’insu desquels avaient lieu toutes ces députations. Les Lacédémoniens envoyèrent à Corinthe trois Spartiates, avec ordre de faire transporter en toute hâte les vaisseaux par-dessus l’isthme, du golfe à la mer du côté d’Athènes, et de les expédier tous à Chio, ceux qu'Agis avait équipés pour Lesbos aussi bien que les autres. Il y avait là¹ en tout trente-neuf vaisseaux des alliés.

Dès le commencement de l’été suivant ¹, les habitants de Chios pressèrent l’envoi de la flotte; ils craignaient que leurs démarches ne parvinssent à la connaissance des Athéniens, à l’insu desquels toutes ces députations avaient lysu. Les Lacédémoniens envoyèrent en conséquence à Corinthe trois Spartiates, avec ordre de faire transporter au plus tôt par-dessus ΓIsthme les bâtiments, de la mer où ils se trouvaient dans celle qui est du côté d’Athènes ² et de les diriger tous sur Chios, ceux qu’Agis avaient destinés pour Lesbos aussi bien que les autres. Ces navires, appartenant aux alliés, étaient au nombre de trente-neuf.

[1] At the beginning of the following summer, as the Chians pressed them to send the ships, and¹ were afraid that the Athenians might become aware of their negotiations—for all these embassies were kept secret from them—the Lacedaemonians sent to Corinth three Spartans, that they might as quickly as possible haul the ships over the Isthmus from the Corinthian Gulf to the sea on the side toward Athens, and give orders for the whole fleet to sail to Chios—the ships which Agis was getting ready for Lesbos as well as the rest. And the number of ships of the allied contingents at that place was all together thirty-nine.

[1] The following summer, when the Chians straightway urged them to despatch the fleet, and were afraid that the Athenians might get intelligence of their measures, (for all parties sent their embassies without their knowledge,) the Lacedaemonians sent three Spartans to Corinth, to haul the ships as quickly as possible across the isthmus, from the opposite sea to that on the side of Athens, and to give orders for them all to sail to Chios, both those which Agis was preparing for Lesbos, and the rest. Now the total number of the ships belonging to the allied states that were there was thirty-nine.

[1] Ineunte autem sequentis aestatis vere statim Chiis instantibus, ut naves mitterentur, et metuentibus, ne Athenienses resciscerent, quse agebantur, (omnes eoim clam illis legatos miserant) Lacedaemonii mittunt tres viros Spartanos Corinthum, ut quam celerrime ab altero mari in id , quod Athenas spectat, navibus per Isthmum transvectis, omnes in Chium navigare juberent, et eas, quas Agis praeparaverat m Lesbum mittendas, et reliquas; erant autem illic universae sociarum civitatum naves numero undequa· draginla.

Al sopravvenir dell’estate subitamente i Chii insistevano che le navi si spedissero, perchè temevano che queste pratiche non venissero a risapersi dagli Ateniesi, di nascosto ai quali tutti mandavano i loro legati a Sparta. Laonde i Lacedemoni inviarono a Corinto tre personaggi spartani a procurare al più presto possibile di trasportar le navi di sull’ istmo all’altro mare che guarda Atene , ed ordinare che tutte navigassero a Chio, tanto quelle che si allestivano da Agide per Lesbo, quanto le altre. Trentanove in tutte furono le navi delle città alleate, che colà si trovarono.
