τῇ δὲ αὐτῇ ἡμέρᾳ Κλέαρχος ἐλθὼν ἐπὶ τὴν διάβασιν τοῦ ποταμοῦ καὶ ἐκεῖ κατασκεψάμενος τὴν ἀγορὰν ἀφιππεύει ἐπὶ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ σκηνὴν διὰ τοῦ Μένωνος στρατεύματος σὺν ὀλίγοις τοῖς περὶ αὐτόν · Κῦρος δὲ οὔπω ἧκεν , ἀλλʼ ἔτι προσήλαυνε · τῶν δὲ Μένωνος στρατιωτῶν ξύλα σχίζων τις ὡς εἶδε Κλέαρχον διελαύνοντα , ἵησι τῇ ἀξίνῃ · καὶ οὗτος μὲν αὐτοῦ ἥμαρτεν · ἄλλος δὲ λίθῳ καὶ ἄλλος , εἶτα πολλοί , κραυγῆς γενομένης .
On
the
same
day
Clearchus
,
after
going
to
the
place
where
they
crossed
the
river
and
there
inspecting
the
market
,
was
riding
back
to
his
own
tent
through
Menon’s
army
,
having
only
a
few
men
with
him
;
and
Cyrus
had
not
yet
arrived
,
but
was
still
on
the
march
toward
the
place
;
and
one
of
Menon’s
soldiers
who
was
splitting
wood
threw
his
axe
at
Clearchus
when
he
saw
him
riding
through
the
camp
.
Now
this
man
missed
him
,
but
another
threw
a
stone
at
him
,
and
still
another
,
and
then
,
after
an
outcry
had
been
raised
,
many
.
