Kytron.

No, no, that is certain!

Julian.

Now we will turn northward, Kytron!

Kytron.

Priscus.

Not westward?

Julian.

Not westward. Not by any means westward. That might be difficult on account of the rivers. And Ctesiphon we must leave till another time. Without ships we cannot think of taking the city. It was the Galileans who brought about the burning of the fleet; I have noted one thing and another.
