παρδάλεως δέ ποτε ὀξυτάτῳ δρόμῳ τὸν ἐκκαλούμενον καταλαβούσης, φθάσας τῷ ἀκοντίῳ μέλλουσαν δήξεσθαι, τὴν μὲν ἀπέκτεινε τὸν δὲ ἐρρύσατο, φθάσας τῇ τοῦ δόρατος αἰχμῇ τὴν τῶν ὀδόντων ἀκμήν. λεόντων δέ ποτε ἐξ ὑπογαίων ἑκατὸν ἀναρριφθέντων ἰσαρίθμοις ἀκοντίοις πάντας ἀπέκτεινεν, ὡς ἐπὶ πολὺ κειμένων τῶν πτωμάτων δἰ αὐτὸ τοῦτο ἐπὶ σχολῆς πάντας ἀριθμῆσαι καὶ μηδὲν ἰδεῖν περιττὸν ἀκόντιον.
