Passage 3.5.4
Παυσανίας δὲ ὑστέρησε μὲν τοῦ ἀγῶνος παρὰ Τεγεατῶν καὶ ἐξ Ἀρκαδίας τῆς ἄλλης ἀθροίζων δύναμιν· ὡς δὲ ἐς τὴν Βοιωτίαν ἀφίκετο, ἐπυνθάνετό τε τήν τε ἧτταν τῶν ὁμοῦ Λυσάνδρῳ καὶ αὐτοῦ Λυσάνδρου τὴν τελευτήν, ἐπῆγε δὲ ὅμως ἐπὶ τὰς Θήβας τὸν στρατὸν καὶ διενοεῖτο ὡς μάχης ἄρξων. ἐνταῦθα οἵ τε Θηβαῖοι τὰ ἐναντία ἐτάσσοντο καὶ Θρασύβουλος ἀπέχειν οὐ πολὺ ἀπηγγέλλετο ἄγων τοὺς Ἀθηναίους· ἀνέμενε δὲ ἄρξαι Λακεδαιμονίους μάχης, ἄρξασι δὲ αὐτὸς ἤδη κατὰ νώτου σφίσιν ἔμελλεν ἐπικείσεσθαι.
Pausanias had fallen behind in the campaign due to gathering forces from Tegea and elsewhere in Arcadia; but when he reached Boeotia, he learned of the defeat of those who were with Lysander and of Lysander's own death. Nevertheless, he proceeded toward Thebes with his army, fully intending to initiate battle. At this point, the Thebans arrayed themselves opposite him, and it was reported that Thrasybulus was not far away, leading the Athenians. Thrasybulus waited for the Lacedaemonians to begin the battle; once they engaged, he planned himself to attack them from behind.
