1. Plutarch, Julius Caesar, 11.6 (1st cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE)

2. Plutarch, Fabius, 5.3 (1st cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE)

5.3. He, and he alone, comprehended the cleverness of his antagonist, and the style of warfare which he had adopted. He therefore made up his mind that by every possible device and constraint his foe must be induced to fight, or else the Carthaginians were undone, since they were unable to use their weapons, in which they were superior, but were slowly losing and expending to no purpose their men and moneys, in which they were inferior. He therefore resorted to every species of strategic trick and artifice, and tried them all, seeking, like a clever athlete, to get a hold upon his adversary. Now he would attack Fabius directly, now he would seek to throw his forces into confusion, and now he would try to lead him off every whither, in his desire to divorce him from his safe, defensive plans.
3. Pausanias, Description of Greece, 1.36.1 (2nd cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE)

When the Athenians were fighting the Persians at sea, a serpent is said to have appeared in the fleet, and the god in an oracle told the Athenians that it was Cychreus the hero.
4. Demosthenes, Orations, 19.272, 22.72, 24.180
