ἐχρήσαντο, δίκας πονηρᾶς ἀρχῆς ὑποσχόντες: ὁ δὲ στρατὸς πᾶς ὡς ἐπύθετο τὰ γενόμενα, ἔν τε ἀφασίᾳ ἦσαν καὶ οὐ πάνυ τι τῷ πραχθέντι πάντες ἠρέσκοντο, καὶ μάλιστά γε οἱ Παίονες καὶ ὅσοι βάρβαροι Θρᾷκες, οἳ καὶ τὴν ἀρχὴν αὐτῷ ἐγκεχειρίκεσαν. πλὴν τοῦ ἔργου ἅπαξ γεγονότος ἄκοντες μέν, ἔφερον δέ: ἀνάγκη τε ἦν συνήδεσθαι τοῖς πραχθεῖσιν ὑποκρινομένοις.
