All this while the Athenians stayed still in Egypt and saw much variety of war.  First the Athenians were masters of Egypt; and the king of Persia sent one Megabazus, a Persian, with money to Lacedaemon to procure the Peloponnesians to invade Attica, and by that means to draw the Athenians out of Egypt.  But when this took no effect, and money was spent to no purpose, Megabazus returned with the money he had left into Asia.  And then was Megabazus the Zopyrus, a Persian, sent into Egypt with great forces, and coming in by land overthrew the Egyptians and their confederates in a battle, drave the Grecians out of Memphis, and finally inclosed them in the isle of Prosopis.  There he besieged them a year and a half, till such time as having drained the channel and turned the water another way, he made their galleys lie aground and the island for the most part continent, and so came over and won the island with land soldiers.

Thus was the army of the Grecians lost after six years' war; and few of many passing through Africa saved themselves in Cyrene, but the most perished.  So Egypt returned to the obedience of the king [of Persia] except only Amyrtaeus that reigned in the fens.  For him they could not bring in, both because the fens are great, and the people of the fens of all the Egyptians the most warlike.  But Inarus, king of the Africans and author of all this stir in Egypt, was taken by treason and crucified.  The Athenians moreover had sent fifty galleys more into Egypt for a supply of those that were there already, which putting in at Mendesium, one of the mouths of the Nilus, knew nothing of what had happened to the rest, and being assaulted from the land by the army and from the sea by the Phoenician fleets, lost the greatest part of their galleys and escaped home again with the lesser part.  Thus ended the great expedition of the Athenians and their confederates into Egypt.
