Then Cyrus, laughing out, leaped up to his grandfather, and kissing him, cried out: O Sacian, you are undone! I Will turn you out Of your office: I will do the business better than you, and not drink the wine myself. For these cup-bearers, when they have given the cup, dip with a dish and take a little out, which, pouring into their left hand, they swallow; and this they do, that, in case they mix poison in the cup, it may be of no advantage to themselves. On this Astyages, in a jesting way, said And why, Cyrus, since you have imitated the Sacian in every thing else, did not you swallow some of the wine 1 Because, truly, said he, I was afraid there had been poison mixed in the cup; for when you feasted your friends on your birth day, I plainly found that he had poured you all poison. And how, child, said he, did you know this i Truly, said he, becausei saw you all disordered in body and mind: for, first, what you do not allow us boys to do, that you did yourselves: for you all bawled toge ther, and could learn nothing of each other: then you fell to singing very ridiculously and without attending to the singer, you swore he sung admirably then every one telling stories of his own strength, you rose up and fell to dancing; but without all rule or measure, for you could not so much as keep yourselves up right: then you all entirely forgot yourselves; you, that you were king, and they, that you were the governor; and then, for the first time, I discovered that you were celebrating a festival, where all were allowed to talk with equal liberty; for you never ceased talking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anabasis of Xenophon: First Four Books; With Copious Notes, Introduction, Map of the Expedition and Retreat of the Ten Thousand, and a Full and Complete Lexicon; For the Use of Schools and Colleges In concluding this Preface, the undersigned may be _allowed to express the conviction, arising from an exami nation of the notes and papers of Professor Crosby, that the present work will be found to be a real and posi tive addition to the several excellent editions of the Anab asis already in print.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Xenophon, Cyropaedeia, Vol. 1: With Introduction and Notes After ravaging unopposed the Assyrian territory up to the walls of Babylon, he postpones his attack on that city. Meanwhile the Assyrian monarch had collected and placed under the com mand of Croesus, king of Lydia, a much larger force, which, however, is routed by Cyrus in a decisive battle fought against Sardis. The Lydian capital surrenders, after a short siege, to the conqueror. The other states of Western Asia are rapidly subdued, and Cyrus ends by taking Babylon, the capital of Assyria, at which he establishes his court and the central seat of government. There he adopts measures for consolidating his dominions, organising his offices of state and court ceremonial, and rewarding his companions in arms After a solemn religious thanksgiving for his successes, he visits his royal uncle and his father. The former bestows on him his daughter in marriage and appoint's him heir to the throne of Media. After the death of Cambyses Cyrus becomes king of Persis, and of Media likewise on the death of Cyaxares. At a late period of his reign, Egypt and several new provinces of Southern and Eastern Asia are added to his former conquests. When far advanced in years, forewarned by a vision of his approaching end, he gathered round him his sons and chief officers of state, in whose presence he expires, after giving them much sound advice concerning their future conduct and the administration of his empire after his death. With the death-bed scene Xenophon's narrative should have ended, but a long chapter of moral commentary is added, in which the writer describes how the precepts and example of Cyrus were set at nought by his successors and all his good arrangements reversed.
