[6] οἱ δὲ ἰδόντες ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ ποταμοῦ ὄντα ἤδη Ἀλέξανδρον κατὰ σπουδὴν μέν, ξυντεταγμένοι δὲ ὅμως ἀπεχώρουν ἀπὸ τῆς ὄχθης: καὶ Ἀλέξανδρος ξὺν μόνῃ τῇ ἵππῳ εἵπετο. ὡς δὲ κατεῖδον ἱππέας μόνους, ἐπιστρέψαντες οἱ Ἰνδοὶ καρτερῶς ἐμάχοντο πλῆθος ὄντες ἐς πέντε μυριάδας. καὶ Ἀλέξανδρος ὡς τήν τε φάλαγγα αὐτῶν πυκνὴν κατεῖδε καὶ αὐτῷ οἱ πεζοὶ ἀπῆσαν, προσβολὰς μὲν ἐποιεῖτο ἐς κύκλους παριππεύων, ἐς χεῖρας δὲ οὐκ ᾔει τοῖς Ἰνδοῖς.
