This man Mys is known to have gone to +Levadhia [22.883,38.433] (inhabited place), Boeotia, Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Lebadea and to have bribed a man of the country to go down into the cave of Trophonius and to have gone to the place of divination at Abai [22.9583,38.5917] (Perseus)Abae in +Phocis (department), Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Phocis. He went first to Thebes [23.3333,38.325] (Perseus) Thebes where he inquired of Ismenian Apollo (sacrifice is there the way of divination, as at Olympia [21.6333,37.65] (Perseus)Olympia), and moreover he bribed one who was no Theban but a stranger to lie down to sleep in the shrine of Amphiaraus.

No Theban may seek a prophecy there, for Amphiaraus bade them by an oracle to choose which of the two they wanted and forgo the other, and take him either for their prophet or for their ally. They chose that he should be their ally. Therefore no Theban may lie down to sleep in that place.
