    Original Text :λέγει δὲ τὴν μάχην ὁ Ξενοφῶν ἐκείνην οἵαν οὐκ ἄλλην τῶν πώποτε γενέσθαι: καὶ παρῆν αὐτὸς τῷ Ἀγησιλάῳ συναγωνιζόμενος, ἐξ Ἀσίας διαβεβηκώς.
     
    Translation :Xenophon says that this battle was unlike any ever fought, and he was present himself and fought on the side of Agesilaüs, having crossed over with him from Asia.

    Remark :perpetrator: Agesilaus II not only wins this battle, but he is also injured in it. Thus a second direct consequence for him is "injury". The second group of perpetrators are Orchomenian.
    victim: For other direct consequence see the comment below.
    Notes :Agesilaus II defeats the Argives while the Thebans defeat the Orchomenians. In the further battle the Thebans remain undefeated, but Agesialus II claims victory for himself (18.1-19.3).
