ἀλλ᾽ οὐδ᾽ ἀληθεύειν ἔοικεν ὡς ἄρα τοὺς τριηράρχους καὶ τοὺς ἐπιβάτας τῶν Σαμίων εἰς τὴν Μιλησίων ἀγορὰν ἀγαγών καὶ σανίσι προσδήσας ἐφ᾽ ἡμέρας δέκα κακῶς ἤδη διακειμένους προσέταξεν ἀνελεῖν ξύλοις τὰς κεφαλὰς συγκόψαντας εἶτα προβαλεῖν ἀκήδευτα τὰ σώματα .
But
he
appears
not
to
speak
the
truth
when
he
says
forsooth
that
Pericles
had
the
Samian
trierarchs
and
marines
brought
into
the
market
place
of
Miletus
and
crucified
there
and
that
then
when
they
had
already
suffered
grievously
for
ten
days
he
gave
orders
to
break
their
heads
in
with
clubs
and
make
an
end
of
them
and
then
cast
their
bodies
forth
without
burial
rites
.
