Itaque paucis ante gradibus quam qui eum sequebantur, in aedem Minervae quae Chalcioicos vocatur confugit. Hinc ne exire posset, statim ephori valvas eius aedis obstruxerunt tectumque sunt demoliti, quo celerius sub divo interiret.
Accordingly, he took refuge in the temple of Minerva, surnamed Chalcioikos, outstripping his pursuers by only a few steps. To prevent his leaving the place, the ephors at once blocked up the doors of the temple and destroyed its roof, in order that he might the sooner die from exposure to the open heavens.
