a 1.1 Onesicritus was of Aegina, or according to Demetrius an Asty∣palaean; he had two Sons. He sent the younger named An∣drosthenes to Athens, who hearing Diogenes would not depart
thence. Hereupon he sent the elder, named Philiscus, who stayed there likewise for the same reason. Lastly, the Father himselfe went, and was so much taken with Diogenes, that he became a sedulous Auditor of him, as his two sons were.
He was esteemed amongst the most eminent Disciples of Dioge∣nes; Laertius compares him with Xenophon; one fought under Cy∣rus, the other under Alexander: One wrote the institution of Cyrus, the other, the praise of Alexander: Their styles also were very like.
