Prima e Macedonum navibus quinqueremis velocitate inter ceteras eminens occurrit; quam ut conspexere Tyriae, duae ex diverso in latera eius invectae sunt, in quarum alteram quinqueremis eadem concitata et ipsa rostro icta est et illam invicem tenuit.
The first of the Macedonians ships to reach the spot was a five-banker, conspicuous among the rest for speed; when the Tyrian ships caught sight of it, two of them charged its sides from opposite directions, against one of which the five-banker rushed, and was itself rammed by the beak of the other and in turn held it fast.
