Hdt. 8.91 The Histories, Herodotus; served verbatim
The barbarians were routed and tried to flee by sailing out to Phalerum, but the Aeginetans lay in wait for them in the strait and then performed deeds worth telling. The Athenians in the commotion destroyed those ships which either resisted or tried to flee, the Aeginetans those sailing out of the strait. Whoever escaped from the Athenians charged right into the Aeginetans.

The Greek stands ready in the workroom; the English is served. Both faces will read together.
