The same summer the Thebans dismantled the
wall of the Thespians on the charge of Atticism, having always wished to do
so, and now finding it an easy matter, as the flower of the Thespian youth
had perished in the battle with the Athenians.
[2]
The same summer also the temple of Hera at Argos was burnt down, through
Chrysis, the priestess, placing a lighted torch near the garlands and then
falling asleep, so that they all caught fire and were in a blaze before she
observed it.
[3]
Chrysis that very night fled to Phlius for fear of the Argives, who,
agreeably to the law in such a case, appointed another priestess named
Phaeinis.
Chrysis at the time of her flight had been priestess for eight years of the
present war and half the ninth.
[4]
At the close of the summer the investment of Scione was completed, and the
Athenians, leaving a detachment to maintain the blockade, returned with the
rest of their army.
