When he died, namely, all his bodyguard of friends and table
 companions died fighting in his defence, with the exception of
 Ariaeus; he, it chanced, was stationed on the left wing at the head
 of the cavalry, and when he learned that Cyrus 
 had fallen, he took to flight with the whole army that he
 commanded. Then the head of
 Cyrus and his right hand were cut off. But
 the King, pursuing Ariaeus, burst into the camp of
 Cyrus ; and Ariaeus and his men no longer
 stood their ground, but fled through their own camp to the
 stopping-place from which they had set out that morning, a distance,
 it was said, of four parasangs. So the King and his troops proceeded to secure plunder of various
 sorts in abundance, while in particular he captured the Phocaean
 woman, Cyru s’ concubine, who, by all accounts,
 was clever and beautiful. The Milesian woman, however, the younger one, after being seized by
 the King’s men made her escape, lightly clad, to some Greeks who had
 chanced to be standing guard amid the baggage train and, forming
 themselves in line against the enemy, had killed many of the
 plunderers, although some of their own number had been killed also;
 nevertheless, they did not take to flight, but they saved this woman
 and, furthermore, whatever else came within their lines, whether
 persons or property, they saved all alike. At this time the King and the Greeks
 were distant from one another about thirty stadia, the Greeks
 pursuing the troops in their front, in the belief that they were
 victorious over all the enemy, the King and his followers
 plundering, in the belief that they were all victorious already.
