Book 7, Chapter 10

ὡς ἔμοιγε οὐκ ἔστιν ὅ τι τοῦ σώματος τῶν γε δὴ ἔμπροσθεν μερῶν ἄτρωτον ὑπολέλειπται, οὐδὲ ὅπλον τι ἔστιν ἢ ἐκ χειρὸς ἢ τῶν ἀφιεμένων οὗ γε οὐκ ἴχνη ἐν ἐμαυτῷ φέρω· ἀλλὰ καὶ ξίφει ἐκ χειρὸς τέτρωμαι καὶ τετόξευμαι ἤδη καὶ ἀπὸ μηχανῆς βέβλημαι, καὶ λίθοις πολλαχῇ καὶ ξύλοις παιόμενος ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν καὶ τῆς ὑμετέρας δόξης καὶ τοῦ ὑμετέρου πλούτου νικῶντας ὑμᾶς ἄγω διὰ πάσης γῆς καὶ θαλάσσης καὶ πάντων ποταμῶν καὶ ὀρῶν καὶ πεδίων πάντων,
