Συντέτακται γὰρ ὑπὸ Κύρου, τοῦ πρώτου Περσῶν βασιλεύσαντος, ποῖα μὲν τῶν ἐθνῶν εἰς πόλεμον ἱππείαν καὶ πόσην τὸν ἀριθμὸν δεῖ παρέχειν, ποῖα δὲ πεζὴν στρατιὰν καὶ πόσην, τίνας δὲ τοξότας καὶ πόσα ἑκάστους ἅρματα ψιλά τε καὶ δρεπανηφόρα καὶ ἐλέφαντας ὁπόθεν καὶ πόσους καὶ χρήματα παρ’ ὧντινων καὶ πόσα. Τοσούτῳ δὲ παρασκευάζεται χρόνῳ πάντα ὑπὸ πάντων, ὅσῳ καὶ εἷς ἀνὴρ παρεσκεύασε.
