The next day the Syracusans began operations
at an earlier hour, but with the same plan of attack by land and sea.
[2]
A great part of the day the rivals spent as before, confronting and
skirmishing with each other; until at last Ariston, son of Pyrrhicus, a Corinthian, the ablest helmsman
in the Syracusan service, persuaded their naval commanders to send to the
officials in the city, and tell them to move the sale market as quickly as
they could down to the sea, and oblige every one to bring whatever eatables
he had and sell them there, thus enabling the commanders to land the crews
and dine at once close to the ships, and shortly afterwards, the selfsame
day, to attack the Athenians again when they were not expecting it.
