32.
About the same time in this summer Athens
succeeded in reducing Scione, put the adult males to death, and making
slaves of the women and children, gave the land for the Plataeans to live
in.
She also brought back the Delians to Delos, moved by her misfortunes in the
field and by the commands of the god at Delphi.
[2]
Meanwhile the Phocians and Locrians commenced hostilities.
[3]
The Corinthians and Argives being now in alliance, went to Tegea to bring
about its defection from Lacedaemon, seeing that if so considerable a state
could be persuaded to join, all Peloponnese would be with them.
[4]
But when the Tegeans said that they would do nothing against Lacedaemon,
the hitherto zealous Corinthians relaxed their activity, and began to fear
that none of the rest would now come over.
[5]
Still they went to the Boeotians and tried to persuade them to alliance and
a common action generally with Argos and themselves, and also begged them to
go with them to Athens and obtain for them a ten days' truce similar to that
made between the Athenians and Boeotians not long after the fifty years'
treaty, and in the event of the Athenians refusing, to throw up the
armistice, and not make any truce in future without Corinth.
These were the requests of the Corinthians.
[6]
The Boeotians stopped them on the subject of the Argive alliance, but went
with them to Athens, where however they failed to obtain the ten days'
truce; the Athenian answer being, that the Corinthians had truce already, as being
allies of Lacedaemon.
[7]
Nevertheless the Boeotians did not throw up their ten days' truce, in spite
of the prayers and reproaches of the Corinthians for their breach of faith; and these last had to content themselves with a de facto armistice with
Athens.
