οὗτος ἦν μὲν ἀπὸ τῆς Καππαδοκῶν γῆς, τῆς δ’ ἐν στρατείαις ἐπιλέκτου νεολαίας, καὶ τῶν ἐν Ῥωμαϊκοῖς ἀξιώμασιν οὐ μικρᾶς τιμῆς ἐπειλημμένος· ἡλικίᾳ τε γὰρ καὶ ῥώμῃ σώματος, μεγέθει τε καὶ ἰσχύι· παρὰ πλεῖστον ὅσον τοὺς συστρατιώτας ἐπλεονέκτει, ὡς καὶ τὴν πρόσοψιν αὐτῷ περιβόητον τοῖς πᾶσιν εἶναι, καὶ τὸ πᾶν εἶδος ἀξιάγαστον, μεγέθους ἕνεκα καὶ εὐμορφίας.
