Reading edition
Liv. Lib. xxxvii. cap. 44. Legati ab Thyatira et Magnesia ad Sipylum ad reddendas urbes venerunt, says this historian, immediately after the action betwixt Scipio and Antiochus. This action is at large described by Appian as well as Livy, as happening betwixt Thyatira and Sardis, upon the banks of the Amnis Phrygius, near Magnesia ad Sipylum; which is not the Hermus (as some have thought) but a river running into the Hermus, which Homer and Herodotus call Hyllus, as Strabo relates in the passage cited above, p. 9.
