Passage 2.3.7
ἅτε δὲ τοῦ θανάτου βιαίου καὶ οὐ σὺν τῷ δικαίῳ γενομένου, τὰ τέκνα Κορινθίων τὰ νήπια ὑπʼ αὐτῶν ἐφθείρετο, πρὶν ἢ χρήσαντος τοῦ θεοῦ θυσίαι τε αὐτοῖς ἐπέτειοι κατέστησαν καὶ Δεῖμα ἐπεστάθη. τοῦτο μὲν δὴ καὶ ἐς ἡμᾶς ἔτι λείπεται, γυναικὸς ἐς τὸ φοβερώτερον εἰκὼν πεποιημένη· Κορίνθου δὲ ἀναστάτου γενομένης ὑπὸ Ῥωμαίων καὶ Κορινθίων τῶν ἀρχαίων ἀπολομένων, οὐκέτι ἐκεῖναι καθεστήκασιν αὐτοῖς αἱ θυσίαι παρὰ τῶν ἐποίκων οὐδὲ ἀποκείρονταί σφισιν οἱ παῖδες οὐδὲ μέλαιναν φοροῦσιν ἐσθῆτα.
Since their death had been violent and unjust, the infant children of the Corinthians were destroyed by these spirits, until, following the oracle of the god, yearly sacrifices were established in their honor, and an image of Fear (Deima) was set up. This image remains even in our own day, crafted in the form of a woman depicted in a fearful manner. But when Corinth was destroyed by the Romans and the former inhabitants were annihilated, the new settlers no longer continued these sacrifices for the children, nor do they cut their children's hair for them, nor do they clothe them in black garments.
