[83]
τὸ τοίνυν τέλος, ὃ πᾶσι τούτοις ἐπέθηκεν, οὐδενὸς ἧττον προσήκει θαυμάζειν· οὐ γὰρ ἀπρεπὲς οὐδʼ ἀνάξιον τῶν προειρημένων φανήσεται ποιησάμενος, ἀλλὰ λόγῳ μὲν πρὸς μίαν πόλιν πολεμήσας, ἔργῳ δʼ οὐ μόνον πρὸς ἅπαντας τοὺς τὴν Ἀσίαν κατοικοῦντας ἀλλὰ καὶ πρὸς ἄλλα γένη πολλὰ τῶν βαρβάρων κινδυνεύων οὐκ ἀπεῖπεν οὐδʼ ἀπῆλθε, πρὶν τήν τε πόλιν τοῦ τολμήσαντος ἐξαμαρτεῖν ἐξηνδραποδίσατο καὶ τοὺς βαρβάρους ἔπαυσεν ὑβρίζοντας.

[83] But the final achievement by which he crowned all these is no less worthy of admiration. For he will be found to have done nothing unseemly or unworthy of these exploits which I have already described; on the contrary, although he waged war, ostensibly against a single city, but in reality not only against all the peoples who dwelt in Asia but also against many other races of the barbarians, he did not give up fighting nor depart for home before reducing to slavery the city of him who had offended against Hellas ¹ and putting an end to the insolence of the barbarians.
