ἐλάθοντο τοῦ χειμῶνος οἱ ναῦται, καὶ ταῖς
κώπαις ἐμφύντες ἐβιάζοντο πάσῃ προθυμίᾳ τὸν ποταμόν. ὡς δὲ ἦν ἄπορα,
δεξάμενος πολλὴν θάλατταν καὶ κινδυνεύσας ἐν τῷ στόματι συνεχώρησε μάλα
ἄκων τῷ κυβερνήτῃ μεταβαλεῖν. ἀνιόντι δὲ αὐτῷ κατὰ πλῆθος ἀπήντων
οἱ στρατιῶται, πολλὰ μεμφόμενοι καὶ δυσπαθοῦντες εἰ μὴ πέπεισται καὶ σὺν
αὐτοῖς μόνοις ἱκανὸς εἶναι νικᾶν, ἀλλ᾽ ἄχθεται καὶ παραβάλλεται διὰ
τοὺς ἀπόντας ὡς ἀπιστῶν τοῖς παροῦσιν.
