[8] τῷ δὲ παρ᾽ ἐλπίδα ξυνέβη τῶν Κελτῶν ἡ ἀπόκρισις: οἷα γὰρ πόρρω τε ᾠκισμένοι Ἀλεξάνδρου καὶ χωρία δύσπορα οἰκοῦντες καὶ Ἀλεξάνδρου ἐς ἄλλα τὴν ὁρμὴν ὁρῶντες ἔφασαν δεδιέναι μήποτε ὁ οὐρανὸς αὐτοῖς ἐμπέσοι, Ἀλέξανδρόν τε ἀγασθέντες οὔτε δέει οὔτε κατ᾽ ὠφέλειαν πρεσβεῦσαι παρ᾽ αὐτόν. καὶ τούτους φίλους τε ὀνομάσας καὶ ξυμμάχους ποιησάμενος ὀπίσω ἀπέπεμψε,τοσοῦτον ὑπειπὼν ὅτι ἀλαζόνες Κελτοί εἰσιν.
