συγγνωστὰ δὲ ἁμαρτεῖν ἔφασαν οὐ πάλαι παρʼ αὐτὸν πρεσβευσάμενοι· ἐπιθυμεῖν γάρ, ὥσπερ τινὲς ἄλλοι, ἔτι μᾶλλον αὐτοὶ ἐλευθερίας τε καὶ αὐτόνομοι εἶναι, ἥντινα ἐλευθερίαν ἐξ ὅτου Διόνυσος ἐς Ἰνδοὺς ἧκε σώαν σφίσιν εἶναι ἐς Ἀλέξανδρον· εἰ δὲ Ἀλεξάνδρῳ δοκοῦν ἐστιν, ὅτι καὶ Ἀλέξανδρον ἀπὸ θεοῦ γενέσθαι λόγος κατέχει, σατράπην τε ἀναδέξεσθαι, ὅντινα τάττοι Ἀλέξανδρος, καὶ φόρους ἀποίσειν τοὺς Ἀλεξάνδρῳ δόξαντας· διδόναι δὲ καὶ ὁμήρους ἐθέλειν ὅσους ἂν αἰτῇ Ἀλέξανδρος.
