Besides all this, Scipio gave orders for seizing the treasures of the temple
of Diana at Ephesus, with all the statues of that
goddess. But when he came to the temple, attended by many persons of
senatorian rank, he received letters from Pompey, desiring him to lay aside
all other concerns, and make what haste he could to join him, because Caesar
had passed into Greece with his whole army. In consequence
of this order, he sent back the senators who had been summoned to attend him
at Ephesus, made preparations for passing
into Macedonia, and began his march a few days
after. Thus the Ephesian treasures escaped being plundered.

About the same time Domitius arrived in Macedonia; and while deputies were
attending him from all parts, news came that Scipio approached with his
legions, which spread a great alarm through the country; as fame, for the
most part, magnifies the first appearances of things. Scipio, without
stopping any where in Macedonia, advanced by great marches
towards Domitius; but being come within twenty miles of him, suddenly
changed his route, and turned off to Thessaly, in quest of Cassius Longinus.
tice of his march: for to make the
more despatch, he had left M. Favonius at the river Haliacmon, which
separates Macedonia from Thessaly, with eight cohorts, to guard the
baggage of the legions, and ordered him to erect a fort there. At the same

Caesar being informed that Pompey was at Asparagium, marched thither with his
army; and having taken the capital of the Parthinians by the way, where
Pompey had a garrison; arrived the third day in Macedonia, and encamped at a small
distance from the enemy. The next day he drew out all his forces, formed
them before his camp, and offered Pompey battle. Finding that he kept within
his lines, he led back his troops, and began to think of pursuing other
measures. Accordingly, on the morrow, by a long circuit, and through very
narrow and difficult ways, he marched, with all his forces, to Dyrrhachium; hoping either to oblige
Pompey to follow him thither, or cut off his communication with the town,
where he had laid up all his provisions, and magazines of war; which

Whilst these things passed in Achaia and at Dyrrhachium, and it was now known that
Scipio was arrived in Macedonia. Caesar still adhering to his
former views of peace, despatched Clodius to him, an intimate friend of
both, whom he had taken into his service upon Scipio's recommendation. At
his departure, he charged him with letters and instructions to this effect:
"That he had tried all ways to bring about a peace; but believed he had
hitherto miscarried, through the fault of those to whom his proposals were
addressed, because they dreaded presenting them to Scipio's authority to be
such, as not only privileged him to advise freely, but even to enforce his
counsels, and compel the obstinate to hearken to reason: that he was
possessed of an ind

For these reasons both generals studied despatch, as well to afford timely
succour to their friends, as not to miss an opportunity of distressing their
enemies. But Caesar had turned off to Apollonia; whereas Pompey took the
nearest way through Candavia for Macedonia. It happened, too, very days had
been encamped near Scipio, quitted that station for the convenience of
provisions, and was upon his march to Heraclea Sentica, a city of the
Candavians; so that chance seemed to throw him directly in Pompey's way,
which Caesar had not then the least knowledge of. Pompey, too, having sent
letters through all the states and provinces, relating to the action at Dyrrhachium, with representations that far
exceeded the truth; a rumour began to prevail, that Caesar had been defe
