καὶ Ἀλέξανδρον μὲν οὐκ ἐλελήθει τὰ γιγνόμενα, ἴασιν δὲ τῶν παρόντων ἑώρα τὴν τῆς ἀγνοίας προσποίησιν μᾶλλόν τι ἢ τὴν ὡς γιγνωσκομένων ἐπιχώρησιν. οὔκουν οὐδὲ τοὺς νόσῳ κάμνοντας τῆς στρατιᾶς οὐδὲ τοὺς διὰ κάματον ὑπολειπομένους ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς ἄγειν ἔτι ἦν εὐμαρῶς ἀπορίᾳ τε τῶν ὑποζυγίων καὶ ὅτι τὰς ἁμάξας αὐτοὶ κατέκοπτον, ἀπόρους οὔσας αὐτοῖς ὑπὸ βάθους τῆς ψάμμου ἄγεσθαι καὶ ὅτι ἐν τοῖς πρώτοις σταθμοῖς διὰ ταῦτα ἐξηναγκάζοντο οὐ τὰς βραχυτάτας ἰέναι τῶν ὁδῶν, ἀλλὰ τὰς εὐπορωτάτας τοῖς ζεύγεσι.
