[27] καταβὰς δ’ εἰς Δικαιάρχειαν καὶ ναῦς ὑφόρμους Ἀλεξανδρίδας ἰδὼν εὐτρεπεῖς πρὸς ἀναγωγήν, ἐπιβὰς μετὰ τῶν ἰδίων, εὐπλοίᾳ χρησάμενος, ὀλίγαις ὕστερον ἡμέραις ἀνεπιφάτως καὶ ἀφωράτως κατάγεται, κελεύσας τοῖς κυβερνήταις — περὶ γὰρ δείλην ὥραν ὁ Φάρος ἀναφαίνεται — τὰ μὲν ἱστία συνάγειν,
ἔξω δὲ περὶ αὐτὸν μὴ μακρὰν ἀφισταμένους θαλαττεύειν ἄχρι τοῦ βαθεῖαν ἑσπέραν ἐπιγενέσθαι καὶ νυκτὸς τοῖς λιμέσι προσσχεῖν, ἵν’ ἀποβὰς ἤδη τετραμμένων ἁπάντων πρὸς ὕπνον, μηδενὸς ὁρῶντος, ἀφίκηται πρὸς τὸν ξενοδόχον.

[27] Accordingly, going down to Dicaearchia, and seeing some Alexandrian vessels in the harbour, looking all ready and fit to put to sea, he embarked with his followers, and had a fair voyage, and so a few days afterwards he arrived at his journey’s end, unforeseen and unexpected, having commanded the captains of his vessels (for he came in sight of Pharos about twilight in the evening) to furl their sails, and to keep a short distance out of sight in the open sea, until it became late in the evening and dark, and then at night he entered the port, that when he disembarked he might find all the citizens buried in sleep, and so, without any one seeing him, he might arrive at the house of the man who was to be his entertainer.
