Nepos, Lysander 2

Lys. 2.1Ita decemvirālī potestāte in omnibus urbibus cōnstitūtā ipsīus nūtū omnia gerēbantur.So, once the rule of ten had been set up in all the cities, everything was done at his nod. Lys. 2.1Cuius dē crūdēlitāte ac perfidiā satis est ūnam rem exemplī grātiā prōferre, nē dē eōdem plūra ēnumerandō dēfatīgēmus lēctōrēs.Of his cruelty and treachery it is enough to put forward one instance by way of example, so as not to weary our readers by listing more about the same man. Lys. 2.2Victor ex Asiā cum reverterētur Thasumque dēvertisset, quod ea cīvitās praecipuā fidē fuerat ergā Athēniēnsēs, proinde ac sī nōn iīdem firmissimī solērent esse amīcī, quī cōnstantēs fuissent inimīcī, pervertere eam concupīvit.When he was returning from Asia as victor and had turned aside to Thasos, because that state had been of outstanding loyalty towards the Athenians, he desired to overthrow it, as if the same men who had been steadfast enemies were not usually the firmest friends. Lys. 2.3Vīdit autem, nisi in eō occultāsset voluntātem, futūrum ut Thasiī dīlāberentur cōnsulerentque rēbus suīsHe saw, however, that unless he concealed his intention in this, the Thasians would slip away and look after their own interests
