      of the ambassadors sent by the Achaeans in <date when-custom="-187">B. C. 187</date>, to renew the

      Epiphanes), who were then joint rulers of Egypt, applying to him to raise for them 1000
      mercenaries. (Id. 29.8.) </p><byline>[<ref target="author.E.H.B">E.H.B</ref>]</byline></div></div></body></text></TEI>
