ὅτι Ἀλέξανδρος μὲν σπουδῇ ἐς τὸν ποταμὸν ἐμβαλὼν καὶ ἐν χερσὶ τὴν μάχην ποιήσας ἐξώθει ἤδη τοὺς ταύτῃ τεταγμένους τῶν Περσῶν, οἱ δὲ κατὰ μέσον τῶν Μακεδόνων οὔτε τῇ ἴσῃ σπουδῇ ἥψαντο τοῦ ἔργου καὶ πολλαχῇ κρημνώδεσι ταῖς ὄχθαις ἐντυγχάνοντες τὸ μέτωπον τῆς φάλαγγος οὐ δυνατοὶ ἐγένοντο ἐν τῇ αὐτῇ τάξει διασώσασθαι, — ταύτῃ ἐμβάλλουσιν οἱ Ἕλληνες τοῖς Μακεδόσιν ᾗ μάλιστα διεσπασμένην αὐτοῖς τὴν φάλαγγα κατεῖδον.
