History of the Peloponnesian War

"The Mecybernaeans and Sanaeans[*](cf. 4.109.3, 5.) and Singians shall dwell in their own towns on the same terms as the Olynthians and Acanthians. 7. "The Lacedaemonians and their allies shall restore Panactum[*](cf. 5.3.5.) to the Athenians.

The Athenians shall restore to the Lacedaemonians, Coryphasium,[*](cf. 4.3.2.) Cythera,[*](cf. 4.54.) Methana,[*](cf. 4.45.2.) Pteleum, and Atalante[*](cf. 2.32.); also they shall set at liberty the Lacedaemonian captives who are in the public prison at Athens or in public prison anywhere else that the Athenians hold sway, and the men of the Peloponnesus who are being besieged in Scione, and all besides who are allies of the Lacedaemonians in Scione,[*](cf. 4.131.) and those whom Brasidas sent into the place,[*](cf. 4.123.4.) as likewise any of the allies of the Lacedaemonians who are in the public prison in Athens, or in public prison anywhere else that the Athenians have sway. In like manner the Lacedaemonians and their allies shall restore whomsoever they have of the Athenians and their allies. 8.

"As to Scione, Torone,[*](cf. 5.3.2.) Sermyle, or any other city which the Athenians hold, the Athenians shall determine about these and the other cities as they may think best. 9. "The Athenians shall bind themselves by oaths with the Lacedaemonians and their allies, city by city;

and either party shall swear its customary oath in the form that is most binding,[*](The Athenians, in ratifying treaties, swore by Zeus, Demeter and Apollo. See Fränkel, Hermes, xiii. 460. Ullrich suggests for Sparta the Dioscuri.) seventeen men representing each city. The oath shall be as follows: 'I will abide by this agreement and this treaty, justly and without deceit.' For the Lacedaemonians and their allies there shall be an oath, in the same terms, with the Athenians. And both parties shall renew the oath year by year. 10.
