[31] βασιλεῖ κατὰ τάχος ἦλθε καὶ ἔλεξεν ὧδε ‘Οὐχὶ ταὐτά μοι δοκεῖς, ὦ δέσποτα, Ῥωμαίοις ἀμφὶ τῇ τούτων σωτηρίᾳ γινώσκειν. οἱ μὲν γὰρ καὶ πρὸ τῶν κινδύνων ὑβρίζουσιν ἐς τὴν βασιλείαν τὴν σὴν καὶ ἡσσημένοι τολμῶσί τε τὰ [p. 334] ἀμήχανα καὶ δρῶσι τοὺς Πέρσας ἀνήκεστα ἔργα, ὥσπερ δεδιότες μή τις αὐτοῖς παρὰ σοὶ φιλανθρωπίας λελείψεται λόγος: σὺ δὲ τούς τε σώζεσθαι οὐκ ἀξιοῦντας ἐλεεῖν βούλει, καὶ φείδεσθαι τῶν οὐδαμῆ ἐθελόντων ἐσπούδακας. ’
