| The trireme had 3 banks of oars, and a full spar deck instead of the centre-line gangway of the early bireme. |
| All of the slain might be burned with the trireme, with all honor, so there was no more care for that. |
| The officers were the trierarch and next to him the helmsman, who was the navigating officer of the trireme. |

| And in the meantime a trireme was despatched in all haste to carry their petition to Sparta. |
| We were closely pushed and in peril when they ensnared the trireme with their sand. |
