As soon as the Athenians heard the news, they
sailed with sixty ships against Samos.
Sixteen of these went to Caria to look out for the Phoenician fleet, and to
Chios and Lesbos carrying round orders for reinforcements, and so never
engaged; but forty-four ships under the command of Pericles with nine colleagues
gave battle, off the island of Tragia, to seventy Samian vessels, of which
twenty were transports, as they were sailing from Miletus.
Victory remained with the Athenians.
Reinforced afterwards by forty ships from Athens, and twenty-five Chian and
Lesbian vessels, the Athenians landed, and having the superiority by land
invested the city with three walls; it was also invested from the sea.

them.
