At this time, also, Callicrotes, who, we are told, was the most comely man in the army, being shot with an arrow and upon the point of expiring^ said, that he lamented not his death (for he came ...from home to lay down his life in the defence of Greece) but that he died without action.

And some say, that while Pausanias was at sacri- fice and prayers, some space out of the battle-array, cer- tain Lydians, falling suddenly upon him, plundered and scattered the sacrifice : and that Pausanias and his com- pany, having no arms, beat them with staves and whips ; and that in imitation of this attack, the whipping the boys about the altar, and after it the Lydian procession, are to this day practised in Sparta.
