Amisso utroque telo, Macedo gladium coeperat stringere, cum occupatum, complexu pedibus repente subductis, Dioxippus arietavit in terram, ereptoque gladio, pedem super cervicem iacenti imposuit stipitem intentans elisurusque eo victum, ni prohibitus esset a rege.
Having lost both his missiles, the Macedonian had begun to draw his sword, when Dioxippus seized him in his arms, suddenly knocked his feet from under him, and butted him to the ground; then snatching his sword from him, he set his foot upon the Macedonians neck as he lay prostrate, and poising his club to strike him, would have crushed his defeated adversary with it, had he not been prevented by the king.
