18. cum parum quicquam succederet, consul minime aequo animo comparationem militum generisque armorum fieri patiebatur, [2] simul nec maturam expugnandi spem nec rationem procul a mari et in evastatis belli cladibus locis hibernandi ullam cernebat. [3] itaque relicta obsidione, quia nullus in tota Acarnaniae atque Aetoliae ora portus erat, qui simul et omnis onerarias, quae commeatum exercitui portabant, caperet et tecta ad hibernandum legionibus praeberet, [4] Anticyra in Phocide, in Corinthium versa sinum, ad id opportunissime sita visa, [5] [p. 133] quia nec procul Thessalia hostiumque locis aberat et ex adverso Peloponnesum exiguo maris spatio divisam, ab tergo Aetoliam 1Acarnaniamque, ab lateribus Locridem ac Boeotiam habebat. [6] Phocidis primo impetu Phanoteam sine certamine cepit. Anticyra haud multum oppugnando morae praebuit. Ambrysus inde Hyampolisque receptae. [7] Daulis, quia in tumulo excelso sita est, nec scalis nec operibus capi poterat.

[9] [p. 134] et alia ignobilia castella Phocidis terrore magis quam armis in potestatem venerunt. Elatia clausit portas, nec, nisi vi cogerentur, recepturi moenibus videbantur aut ducem aut exercitum Romanum. 2
