About five in the evening I begin to move, having now left the caraván, and purposing to travel all night towards Magnesia. Before it is dark I again ford the Hyllus, and after that proceed over those fair plains, in which Scipio Asiaticus first won the empire of Asia for the Romans by the defeat of king Antiochus[95], as we find it described by Livy.
June xxviii.
By nine a clock this morning I reach Magnesia, where I repose myself the remaining part of the day with the following night. And then mounting by five the next morning, after a refreshment of about three hours I arrive at Smyrna safe, and in good health, by three a clock in the afternoon.
