συμπεσόντων δὲ καὶ μαχομένων πάλιν, τὸν Ἀχιλλέα κάλλιστα ἀγωνίσασθαι μετὰ τῶν αὑτοῦ, καὶ πολλοὺς ἀποκτεῖναι τῶν Τρώων καὶ τῶν ἐπικούρων, ἄλλους τε καὶ τὸν Σαρπηδόνα τὸν τοῦ Διὸς υἱὸν λεγόμενον εἶναι, βασιλέα Λυκίων· καὶ περὶ τὴν τοῦ ποταμοῦ διάβασιν ἀποχωρούντων γενέσθαι φόνον πολύν, οὐ μέντοι προτροπάδην φεύγειν αὐτούς, ἀλλὰ πολλὰς ἑκάστοτε ὑποστροφὰς γίγνεσθαι.
