Δαρεῖος δέ, ὡς συντεταγμένη ἤδη ἦν αὐτῷ ἡ φάλαγξ, τοὺς ἱππέας, οὕστινας πρὸ τοῦ ποταμοῦ ἐπὶ τῷδε προτετάχει ὅπως ἀσφαλῶς αὐτῶ ἡ ἔκταξις τῆς στρατιᾶς γένοιτο, ἀνεκάλεσεν ἀπὸ ξυνθήματος. καὶ τούτων τοὺς μὲν πολλοὺς ἐπὶ τῷ δεξιῷ κέρατι πρὸς τῇ θαλάσσῃ κατὰ Παρμενίωνα ἔταξεν, ὅτι ταύτῃ μᾶλλόν τι ἱππάσιμα ἦν, μέρος δέ τι αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ εὐώνυμον πρὸς τὰ ὄρη παρήγαγεν.
