quid tot captivis fulgentia culmina rostris? armaque fixa deis? aut quae Marathonius hostis perdidit, aut Libya quae sunt advecta subacta? hic Agathocleis sedes ornata tropaeis; hic mites Hieronis opes; hic sancta vetustas artificum manibus.
and many lofty buildings adorned with the beaks of captured ships; and armour fixed on temple-walls, either taken from the Athenian enemya or brought across the sea from conquered Libya. Here stood a building adorned with the trophies won by Agathocles,b and there was displayed the peaceful wealth of Hiero; and here the handiwork of famous artists was consecrated by antiquity.
