21. postero die regiae magis compositae et ordinatae stationes quingentis passibus longius ab urbe posuerunt castra, et Achaei eodem ferme tempore atque in eundem locum processerunt. [2] per multas horas intenti utrimque velut iam futurum impetum expectavere;1 postquam haud procul occasu2 solis redeundi3 in castra tempus erat, regii signis collatis abire agmine ad iter magis quam ad pugnam composito coepere. [3] quievit Diophanes dum in conspectu erant; deinde eodem4 quo pridie impetu in postremum agmen incurrit, tantumque rursus pavoris ac tumultus incussit ut, cum terga caederentur, nemo pugnandi causa restiterit; trepidantesque et vix ordinem agminis servantes in castra compulsi sunt.

[8] eam divisis inter se partibus cum oppugnarent et videretur sine operibus, armis scalisque capi posse, missum ab Antiocho praesidium trium milium armatorum cum intrasset urbem, [9?] extemplo oppugnatione omissa classis ad insulam se recepit nihil aliud quam depopulato circa urbem hostium agro.
