At the close of the winter, towards the beginning of spring, the Argives went with scaling ladders to Epidaurus, expecting to find it left unguarded on account of the war and to be able to take it by assault, but returned unsuccessful.
Neguaren bukaeran, udaberrirantz, argostarrak eskailera eta guzti joan ziren Epidaurora, hiria asaltoan hartzera, uste zutelako gerraren ondorioz troparik barik zeudela; baina hura eskuratzerik lortu ez zutenez, alde egin zuten.
