and on the third day he was making the march seated in his chariot
 and with only a small body of troops drawn up in line in front of
 him, while the greater part of the army was proceeding in disorder
 and many of the soldiers’ arms and accoutrements were being carried
 in wagons and on pack-animals. It was now about full-market
 time i.e. the middle of the
 forenoon. and the stopping-place where
 Cyrus was intending to halt had been almost
 reached, when Pategyas, a trusty Persian of
 Cyru s’ staff, came into sight, riding at
 full speed, with his horse in a sweat, and at once shouted out to
 everyone he met, in the barbarian tongue and in Greek, that the King
 was approaching with a large army, all ready for battle. Then ensued great confusion; for the thought of the Greeks, and of
 all the rest in fact, was that he would fall upon them immediately,
 while they were in disorder; and Cyrus leaped down from his chariot, put on
 his breastplate, and then, mounting his horse, took his spears in
 his hands and passed the word to all the others to arm themselves
 and get into their places, every man of them. Thereupon they proceeded in great haste to take their places,
 Clearchus occupying the right end of the Greek wing, i.e. the Greek army as a whole
 constituted the right wing of Cyru s’ entire
 army, his Persian troops forming the centre and the left wing.
 Clearchus and Menon, then, occupy the right and left wings,
 respectively, of the Greek contingent. close to the
 Euphrates river, Proxenus next to him, and the others beyond
 Proxenus, while Menon and his army took the left end of the Greek
 wing.
