ἀφικόμενος δὲ ἐς Νίκαιαν πόλιν καὶ τῇ Ἀθηνᾷ θύσας προὐχώρει ὡς ἐπὶ τὸν Κωφῆνα, προπέμψας κήρυκα ὡς Ταξίλην τε καὶ τοὺς ἐπὶ τάδε τοῦ Ἰνδοῦ ποταμοῦ, κελεύσας ἀπαντᾶν ὅπως ἂν ἑκάστοις προχωρῇ. καὶ Ταξίλης τε καὶ οἱ ἄλλοι ὕπαρχοι ἀπήντων, δῶρα τὰ μέγιστα παρʼ Ἰνδοῖς νομιζόμενα κομίζοντες, καὶ τοὺς ἐλέφαντας δώσειν ἔφασκον τοὺς παρὰ σφίσιν ὄντας, ἀριθμὸν ἐς πέντε καὶ εἴκοσιν.
