Sic Granicum, tot milibus equitum peditumque in ulteriore stantibus ripa, superavit, sic angustis in Ciliciae callibus tantam multitudinem hostium; audaciae quoque, qua maxime viguit, ratio minui potest, quia numquam in discrimen venit an temere fecisset.
In the same way he crossed the Granicus, while so many thousands of horse and foot were at a standstill on the further bank; thus in the narrow passes of Cilicia he overcame such a horde of foes; even the charge of reckless daring, which he had in abundance, can have less force, because there was never opportunity to decide whether he had acted rashly.
