[2] But the Argive army marched from mid-Peloponnesus to mid-Boeotia, while Adrastos collected his allied forces out of Arcadia and from the Messenians, and likewise mercenaries came to the help of the Thebans from Phokis, and the Phlegyans from the Minyan country. When the battle took place at the Ismenian sanctuary, the Thebans were worsted in the encounter, and after the rout took refuge within their fortifications.
