Hic tamen tam callidus vir extremo tempore captus est Mithridatis, Ariobarzanis filii, dolo. Namque is pollicitus est regi se eum interfecturum, si sibi rex permitteret ut quodcumque vellet liceret impune facere fidemque de ea re more Persarum dextra dedisset.
Yet this man, cunning as he was, finally fell victim to the craft of Mithridates, the son of Ario-barzanes; for he had promised the king to kill Datames, provided the king would allow him to do with impunity anything that he chose, and would give him a pledge to that effect in the Persian fashion with his right hand.
