SAMIPPUS

Well go on then, if you dont mind. Be good soldiers in danger and dont betray our native spirit! The enemy are coming on now, I fancy. So let Enyalius [*] be our watchword! When the trumpeter gives the signal, raise the battle-cry, crash your spears against your shields, charge and get to grips with em! Get under their arrows! Dont let them shoot us down at long range! Now were at close quarters and Timolaus and the left have routed those against themMedes they are. Theres no

decision yet in my sectortheyre Persians here and the kings with them. All the barbarian horse are charging our right. So show your quality, Lycinus, and encourage your men to receive the charge!
