ʽπολλοῖς γὰρ δὴ ἐν ἴσῳ τὰ τῆς ἀξιώσεως ἐδόκει πρός τε αὐτοῦ Ἀλεξάνδρου καὶ πρὸς Μακεδόνων καθεστηκέναἰ, ὅπως δὲ ἀποσωθήσονται ἐς τὴν οἰκείαν, τοσούτων μὲν ἐθνῶν μαχίμων περιειργόντων σφᾶς ἐν κύκλῳ, τῶν μὲν οὔπω προσκεχωρηκότων, ἃ δὴ ὑπὲρ τῆς ἐλευθερίας εἴκαζον ἀγωνιεῖσθαι καρτερῶς, τῶν δὲ ἀποστησομένων ἀφαιρεθέντος αὐτοῖς τοῦ Ἀλεξάνδρου φόβου, ποταμῶν τε ἐν μέσῳ ἀδιαβάτων τότε δὴ ἐδόκουν εἶναι καὶ πάντα σφίσιν ἄπορα καὶ ἀμήχανα ἐρήμοις Ἀλεξάνδρου ἐφαίνετο.
