160 A PILGRIMAGE FOR PEACE
" Go then and tell Alexander this : Dandamis has no
need of aught that is yours, and therefore will not go to
you, and if you want anything from Dandamis come you
to him."
Alexander on receiving from Onesikritos report of the
interview " felt a stronger desire than ever to see Danda-
mis, who though old and naked was the only antagonist
^in whom he? the coiiquerer of many nations, had met
more than his match."
