This scheme succeeded, and Themistocles won the favour of Artaxerxes to such a degree, that even the courtiers are said to have envied him. After some time the king sent him to Asia Minor, assigning to him three flourishing towns for his maintenance. Magnesia having to provide him with bread, Myus with viands, and Lampsacos with wine. He thus spent the latter part of his life at Magnesia in princely splen- dour. He is generally said to have made away with himself, because he had promised the ki...ng more than he was able to perform ; but this account is at least doubtful.
