θεραπεύοντες—as though εἰρήκεσαν preceded. See II. 53, 2. For θεραπεύω=ἐπιμέλομαι with inf. cf. VII. 70 ἐθεράπευον . . μὴ λείπεσθαι. τό goes with πρὸς τοὺς ἐν τῇ Σ.: μὴ θορυβεῖν is final: the length of the sentence accounts for βουλόμενοι instead of a new object to θεραπεύοντες: ‘being anxious not to cause a disturbance among their troops and their enemies in Sicily.’ Before πολεμίους (noun) repeat πρὸς τοὺς ἐν Σικελίᾳ. It is less well, as in Intr. p. xxiv., to take τό with θορυβεῖν. The above trans, is in agreement with Stein. Μαντινέας—see c. 43, 2.
