Indica, Fragment 23 line 86
Megasthenes
Καὶ ὅστις μὲν ἐκεῖνον κατ ̓ ἐπιτυχίην συλλάβοι, τοῦτον δὲ εὐπετέως περιβάλλειν καὶ τὸ ἄλλο σμῆνος τῶν μαργαριτέων· εἰ δὲ διαφύγοι σφᾶς ὁ βασιλεὺς, τούτῳ δὲ οὐκέτι θηρατοὺς εἶναι τοὺς ἄλλους· τοὺς ἁλόντας δὲ περιορᾶν κατασαπῆναί σφισι τὴν σάρκα, τῷ δὲ ὀστέῳ ἐς κόσμον χρῆσθαι.
