35. As the Achaeans and Aetolians were preparing to answer him, since the sun was now near its setting, the council was adjourned until next day, and Philip returned to the base from which he had [p. 261]come, the Romans and the allies to the camp. [2] The¹ next day Quinctius arrived at Nicaea —for this was the place agreed upon —at the appointed time; Philip was nowhere in sight and no messenger from him arrived for several hours, and just as they were ready to abandon hope of his coming, suddenly his ships appeared. [3] And Philip said that, since such heavy and unjust demands had been made, being uncertain what to do, he had spent the day in deliberation; [4] it was the general opinion that he had purposely deferred his arrival until late, so as to give the Achaeans and Aetolians no time to reply to [5] him, and he himself confirmed this belief by asking that the others retire, that time might not be wasted in argument and that some end might be set to the affair, and that he be permitted to confer with the Roman commander by himself. [6] At first the request was denied, lest the allies seem to be excluded from the [7] conference, but finally, as he persisted in his plea, with the consent of all, the Roman general with Appius Claudius, tribune of the soldiers, left the rest behind and came out to the water's edge; the king with the two companions whom he had had with him the day before came ashore. [8] After they had talked for some time apart, what account Philip gave his own friends is uncertain; [9] the report of Quinctius to the allies was that Philip ceded to the Romans the whole Illyrian coast, sent back the deserters and whatever prisoners there were; [10] to Attalus he returned the ships and the naval allies captured with them, and to the Rhodians the region which they call Peraea, but he would not give up Iasus or Bargyliae; to the Aetolians he surrendered Pharsalus and Larisa but not Thebes; [11] to the Achaeans he would yield not only Argos but [p. 263]Corinth as well. [12] The decision as to the places from² which he would or would not retire pleased no party: for more, they maintained, was lost thereby than gained, nor would causes for strife ever be wanting until he withdrew his garrisons from all Greece.
