Book Details
First Sentence
"1. In this country between the rivers Cophen and Indus which Alexander invaded it is said that a city called Nysa was also situated, a foundation of Dionysus in the time when he subdued the Indians, whoever this Dionysus was, and whenever or whence he marched against the Indians; for my part I cannot gather whether the Theban Dionysus, starting from Thebes or from the Lydian Tmolus, led an army against the Indians, after assailing so many warlike peoples, unknown to the Greeks of that time, and yet subduing none of them by force but the Indians; still, one must not be precise critic of ancient legends that concern the divine."
