| The Athenian alliance with the Argives, the Boeotians and the Corinthians against Sparta in the Corinthian War is portrayed as a gesture of compassion for the weak. |
| But now the Corinthians were by no means disposed to part with the garrison of the Argives. |
| It was founded by Argives, who accompanied Triptolemus in his search after io. |
| The Mantineans suffered severely in their retreat, but of the Argives only a few were slain. |
| Its position among other monuments and statues, as well as its construction would indicate that it was an important monument for the Argives. |
| Of a truth my goodliness and beauty of person the gods destroyed what time the Argives went up into Troy town. |
