ἵνα γὰρ καὶ πρὸ τῶν ἔργων τοὺς μισθοὺς ἔχοντες πᾶν τὸ πρόθυμόν σφισι παρέχωνται, ταῦτά τε αὐτοῖς πράττειν ἐπέτρεπον καὶ πόλεις χώρας τε δώσειν ὑπισχνοῦντο· καὶ ἐπὶ τούτῳ καὶ γεωνόμους ὁμοῦ καὶ οἰκιστὰς αὐτοῖς προσαπέδειξαν. τὸ μὲν οὖν πλῆθος τῶν στρατιωτῶν τούτοις ἀνηρτῶντο, τῶν δὲ δὴ λογιμωτέρων τοὺς μὲν τοῖς κτήμασι τοῖς τῶν ἀπολλυμένων ἐδελέαζον, τὰ μὲν ἐπευωνίζοντες τὰ δὲ καὶ προῖκά σφισι χαριζόμενοι, τοὺς δὲ καὶ ταῖς ἀρχαῖς ταῖς τε ἱερωσύναις
