When he had driven past them all, he halted his chariot in front of the centre of the phalanx, and sending his interpreter Pigres to the generals of the Greeks, gave orders that the troops should advance arms and the phalanx move forward in a body.

And then, as they went on faster and faster, at length with a shout the troops broke into a run of their own accord, in the direction of the camp.
