    The war between the Tarrentines and the Japygians.
MENON being the archon of Athens, and L. Æmilius Mamercus and C. Cornelius Lentulus consuls of Rome, a war broke out between the Tarrentines and the Japyges, concerning the limits of their lands. At the first there were but little skirmishes, and taking booties one from another: but the enmity increasing by degrees, and in the mean time slaughters being committed far and near on both sides, at length it broke out into open war. The Japyges (of their citizens and confederates) bring into the field about twenty thousand men. The Tarrentines understanding the great preparation made against them, both with their own citizens and confederates of Rhegium, likewise take the field. A bloody battle was fought, and after many killed on both sides, the Japyges became absolute victors; and in the pursuit, the Tarrentines were scattered, and broken into two parties, whereof one fled back to Tarrentum, the other was furiously driven towards Rhegium. The Japyges likewise divided themselves into two parties, one of which pursued close upon the back of the Tarrentines; and in regard the distance of the place was but very small, there was a very great slaughter made. The other party so hotly pursued them of Rhegium, that they fell in pell-mell with them into the city, and so took it and possessed it.

    The war between the Argives and the Mycenæans.
WHEN Theaginidas was archon of Athens, and Lucius Æmilius Mamercus and Lucius Vopiscus Julius, consuls of Rome, began the seventy-eighth olympiad, wherein Parminidas Possidoniates was victor. At that time the war broke out between the Argives and the Mycenæans upon the following occasion. The Mycenæans, by reason of the antient renown and glory of their country, would never submit to the government of the Argives, as all the rest of the cities in the territory of Argos did, but were still governed by their own laws distinct from them of Argos. They contended likewise with the Argives, concerning the holy rites of the temple of Juno, and to have the sole management of the Nemæan games. Besides, when the Argives made a law, that none should aid the Lacedæmonians at Thermopylæ, unless the Spartans would relinquish and give up part of their country to them of Argos, they of Mycenæ only of all the other cities in the territory of Argos joined with the Lacedæmonians. And lastly, they of Argos were jealous, lest, by the growth of their power, their antient courage should so revive as to contend with them for the sovereignty. For these reasons, they had an evil eye to the Mycenæans, and some time not long before, had a longing desire to ruin their city. And now they thought a fit occasion and opportunity was offered them, to accomplish what they before designed, in regard the Spartans seemed not to be in a condition, by reason of their late calamity, to aid and assist them. To this end they marched against them with a great army both from Argos and their confederates: and having routed them, drove them within the walls, and besieged their city. The Mycenæans made a stout defence for a time, but wearied out and wasted by famine, (the Lacedæmonians, partly through wars of their own, and partly through the late ruins by the earthquake, unable to assist them, and the help of the other confederates falling), they became a prey to the conquerors. The Argives made all the citizens captives, and consecrated a tenth of the spoil to the god, and laid the city even with the ground. Such was the end of Mycenæ, a city in former times flourishing in all prosperity, that had bred and brought up men famous in their generations, that had been glorious in the world by brave and noble actions, and now lies waste and forsaken unto this day. These were the affairs of this year.

### Chapter XI

    The death of Theron prince of Agrigentum, and the tyranny of his son Thrasideus, who abdicated the government, and killed himself. Three hundred of the family of the Fabii slain at one time.
The next year Chares was archon at Athens, and at Rome, Titus Memius and Caius Horatius were consuls. Then were celebrated the Olympian games at Elis, being the seventy-seventh olympiad, in which Daneles of Argos was victor. About this time Theron king of Agrigentum died, in the sixteenth year of his reign, and Thrasideus his son succeeded.
Theron governed with great moderation and justice, and therefore was greatly loved and honoured by his subjects; and at his death was reverenced as a divine hero; but his son, even in his father's life-time, appeared to be of a violent and bloody disposition.
And after his father's death, throwing aside all restraint of the laws, he ruled arbitrarily and tyrannically; for which reason his subjects combined against him, as one not fit to be intrusted with the government, and perfectly hated by all. And therefore within a little time after he came to an end suitable to his deserts.
For after the death of his father, he raised a great army of mercenaries, and of his own subjects of Agrigentum and Himera, to the number of above twenty thousand horse and foot, and with these went against the Syracusans. But Hiero, furnished with a considerable army, wasted the borders of Agrigentum, and afterwards joined battle with the enemy, in which most of the Grecians on both sides being drawn up one against another, were slain: but the Syracusans got the day, with the loss of two thousand men; on the other side were killed above four thousand.
Thrasideus by this ill-success, perplexed in his mind, abdicated his government, and fled to the Megarensians called Miseans, and being there condemned to die, slew himself. The Agrigentines, after they had restored and settled their democratical government, sent an ambassador to Hiero, to treat for peace. At the same time in Italy, the Romans had war with the Veientes, and in a great battle at Cremera were routed; and amongst others, three hundred of the Fabii, all of one family, were every man slain: and these were the affairs and events of this year.

### Chapter XVI

    The death of Hiero.
LYSIATUS being governor or archon of Athens, the Romans chose Lucius Pinarius Mamercinus and Lucius Furius Fusus, their consuls. At this time Hiero, king of Syracuse, invited to him, with many rich presents, the sons of Anaxilaus, prince of Zanele, now Messana in Sicily, and put them in mind how kind Gelon had been to their father, and advised them, now they were come to men's estate, to call Micythus their tutor to account, and to take the sovereign power and government into their own hands. Being returned to Rhegium, they forthwith demanded an account of Micythus of his administration; who, being a just and honest man, called together all the friends of the two young men, and gave so full and clear an account of his trust, that all then present admired his justice and faithfulness. The youths, now sorry for what they had done, desired him to take upon him again the government, and as their father, to order and dispose of all affairs as he thought fit. But Micythus utterly refused to be any longer concerned; but giving up all, shipped his goods and sailed forth from Rhegium, with the general love and favour of the people, and made for Greece, where he lived the rest of his time in great repute at Tegea in Arcadia. Hiero died at Catana, a city repeopled by him, and there was buried with great pomp and solemnity, after he had reigned eleven years. He left his kingdom to Thrasybulus his brother, who reigned only one year.

### Chapter VIII

    The Lacedæmonians quarrel with the Athenians for the dominion of the sea.
WHEN Dromoclides was archon of Athens, and Marcus Fabius and Cneius Manlius consuls of Rome, the Lacedæmonians were highly concerned for their loss of sovereignty of the sea, and therefore being greatly exasperated against the Grecians, who had deserted them, they breathed out revenge, with just indignation against them. A general council therefore being called, they advised together concerning war to be proclaimed against the Athenians, in order to the recovery of their dominion at sea: and in several other assemblies of the people, most of them (especially the young men) were very hot and eager for the war, vaunting every where how rich they should be if they succeeded in their design, and how all would be encouraged in the service of their country, when every private family hath had such advantages and occasions to enrich and advance themselves.
And they called to mind an old prophecy from the oracle, which bid them beware of having but half an empire, which could signify nothing else (as they alledged) but the present circumstances they were in. For being there were two sovereignties, the one at land, and the other at sea, if they lost the one, they must need be masters but of a lame government.
The whole city almost being of the opinion for a war, the matter was again referred to the senate, supposing none would dare to contradict the general sense of the citizens. But one of the senators, of the family of Hercules, called Hetæmaridas, (a man of great esteem among the citizens for his virtue), advised quite otherwise, and declared his opinion that they should suffer the Athenians quietly to enjoy the dominion of the sea, for that it was not the custom of the commonwealth of Sparta, to contend with that sovereignty. And urging many reasons for the confirmation of his opinion (which was not at first very grateful) he at length prevailed both with the senate and people to wave the war. And so it was concluded, according to his advice, as most advantageous to desist.
The Athenians at the first were in great fear of a bloody war with the Spartans about this command at sea, and therefore they built many gallies for that purpose, and provided a great mass of treasure, and sought to gain all their neighbours and confederates with the greatest demonstrations of kindness and courtesy imaginable. But hearing of what was resolved and determined by the Lacedæmonians, all fear of war being now vanished, they wholly bent their minds to advance the power and greatness of their city.

    The war between the Athenians and the Æginians.
THE following year wherein Archimedes was archon of Athens, Aulus Virginius and Titus Numiciu, Roman consuls; was the first year of the seventy-ninth olympiad, at which Xenophon the Corinthian won the prize: at this time the Thracians revolted from the Athenians, through the differences arising concerning the mines, but were reduced by force to their obedience. The Æginians likewise rebelled, and being subdued, the Athenians besieged the city, which was grown proud, not only through their great successes and victories at sea, but their riches at land; and having a brave and well-furnished navy, were ever enemies to the Athenians; who therefore entered the island with an army, laid waste to the country, and resolved to raze the city of Ægina to the ground: hereupon, now grown great in power, they carried not themselves with that humanity and courtesy towards their confederates as they were used to do, but domineered every where with a proud and high hand. This imperious way of theirs, caused many of their confederates to enter into consultations for a general defection, and some particular places determined it of their own accord, without stopping for, or expecting the results of a general assembly. While these things were acting, the Athenians, (being now every where masters at sea), sent a colony of ten thousand men to Amphipolis, (chosen partly out of the citizens, and partly from among the confederates), and divided the country by lot: for some time they kept down the Thracians that bordered upon them; but when they attempted to proceed farther into the heart of the country, those that entered Thrace were wholly cut off by the Edones.

# The History of the Bohemian Persecution/Chapter 30

CHA A. XXX.
I. IN the year, 1526 on the 9 day of December Nicholas Wrzetenar, being well stricken in yeares and withall a learned man, is accuſed of Piccardisme, before the Senat by Jacobus Parochus, and appearing according to his citation, he was demanded by Zabera what he did beleeve concerning the Sacrament of the Altar, answered. That which the Evangelists and St. Paul taught mee to believe. He that at that time sate as chiefe asked him; beleevest thou that Christ is there present having flesh and bloud, but he answered, I beleeve that when the Ministers of Gods word doth declare to the faithful congregation the benefits which are received by the death of Christ, the bread and wine are then made the supper of the Lord, wherein they are made partakers of the body and bloud of Christ, and the benefits received by the death of Christ. What ​needes many words after the discussing of some questions concerning the Mase, and intercession of Saints, &c. they do condemn him to the fire together with his Hostesse Clara being a widow of three score yeares of age, who would not deny that faith whereof she was instructed by her inmate.
2. Being brought to the place of torment, and being comanded to pray to the sign of the cross, lifted up toward the east, they utterly refused, saying. The law of God permitteth us not to worship the likeness of any thing either in heaven or earth, we wil worship the living God of heaven, who alike inhabiteth the South, the West, the North, the East, turning their backs therefore unto the image, and prostrating themselves towards the West, with their hands and eyes lifted up unto heaven with great ardencie of spirit they called on Christ, then tooke leave of their children, and Nicholas with much cheerfulnes ascended the heap of wood, & there stood, and did repeat the Articles of the Creed, which when he had finished, he looked up to heaven, praied, and with a loud voice said. Lord Jesus Christ, thou son of the living God who was born of a pure virgin, and didst vouchasfe to undergo the shamefull death of the Crosse for me a wretched sinner, thee alone do I worship, to thee I recommend my soul, be merciful unto me and forgive me all my sins. Then he repeated this Psalm in latine. In thee O Lord have l put my trust. In the mean time the executiones had laid ​Clara on the pile of wood, and then bound them both and casting the books which were found about them on the heap he set fire thereto.
