Contra si quis aciem Macedonum intueretur, dispar facies erat, equis virisque non auro, non discolori veste, sed ferro atque aere fulgentibus; agmen et stare paratum et sequi, nec turba nec sarcinis praegrave, intentum ad ducis non signum modo, sed etiam nutum.
If on the other hand anyone should look upon the Macedonians army, its appearance was different; men and horses gleaming, not with gold and particoloured garments, but with steel and bronze; an army prepared to stand or to follow, not over weighted with excessive numbers or with baggage, watchful, not only for the signal, but even for the nod of its leader.
