IX. 86.
OF HERODOTUS'S MALICE. 369 from having a share in the honor of those that behaved themselves valiantly, but inscribed their names on the trophies and colossuses, and granted them part of the spoils? Lastly they set up an altar, on which was en- graven this epigram : The Greeks, by valor having put to flight The Persians and preserved their country's right, Erected here this altar which you see, To Jove, preserver of their liberty.
Did Cleadas, O Herodotus, or some other, write this also

Pausanias indeed, when he was aspiring to the tyranny, set up this inscription in Delphi : Pausanias, of Greeks the general, When he the Medes in fight had overthrown, Offered to Phoebus a memorial Of victory, this monumental stone.
In which he gave the glory to the Greeks, whose general he professed himself to be.
