[6] ταῦτα μὲν οὖν ἐς πλεονεξίαν τοῦ ἀγῶνος ἐπεξῄει. τὰ δὲ ἆθλα ὅτι μεγάλα ἔσται σφίσι τοῦ κινδύνου ἐπεδείκνυεν. οὐ γὰρ τοὺς σατράπας τοὺς Δαρείου ἐν τῷ τότε κρατήσειν, οὐδὲ τὴν ἵππον τὴν ἐπὶ Γρανίκῳ ταχθεῖσαν, οὐδὲ τοὺς δισμυρίους ξένους τοὺς μισθοφόρους, ἀλλὰ Περσῶν τε ὅ τι περ ὄφελος καὶ Μήδων καὶ ὅσα ἄλλα ἔθνη Πέρσαις καὶ Μήδοις ὑπήκοα ἐποικεῖ τὴν Ἀσίαν καὶ αὐτὸν μέγαν βασιλέα παρόντα, καὶ ὡς οὐδὲν ὑπολειφθήσεταί σφισιν ἐπὶ τῷδε τῷ ἀγῶνι ὅτι μὴ κρατεῖν τῆς Ἀσίας ξυμπάσης καὶ πέρας τοῖς πολλοῖς πόνοις ἐπιθεῖναι.
