27.1 While Alexander was still a boy and Philip was winning many successes, he was not glad, but said to d The story is told also in Plutarch’s Life of Demetrius, chap. xiii. (909 c). Stobaeus, Florilegium, xiii. 28, quotes Serenus, who states that a peasant made this remark to Anitpater. e Alexander the Great, born 356, king of Macedon 336323 B.C. his playmates, My father will leave nothing for me to do. But, said the boys, he is acquiring all this for you. But what good is it, said Alexander, if I possess much and accomplish nothing ? Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Alexander, chap. v. (666 F). Many of the stories about Alexander are repeated in Zonaras, Epitome of History, iv. 8-15.

27.2 Being nimble and swift of foot, he was urged by his father to run in the foot-race at the Olympic games. Yes, I would run, said he, if I were to have kings as competitors. Cf. Moralia, 331 B, and Plutarch’s Life of Alexander, chap. iv. (666 D).

27.3 A girl was brought to him late in the evening with the intent that she should spend the night with him, and he asked her, Why at this time ? She replied, I had to wait to get my husband to go to bed ; whereupon Alexander bitterly rebuked his servants, since, owing to them, he had so narrowly escaped becoming an adulterer.

27.4 On a time when he was offering incense to the gods with lavish hand, and often taking up handfuls of the frankincense, Leonidas, who had been his attendant in boyhood, happening to be present, said, My boy, you may offer incense thus lavishly when you have made yourself master of the land that bears it. And so, when Alexander had become master of it, he sent a letter to Leonidas: I have sent to you a half-ton of frankincense and cassia, so that you may never again count any petty cost in dealing with the gods, since you know that we are now masters of the land that bears these fragrant things. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Alexander, chap. xxv. (679 C); Pliny, Natural History, xii. 32 (62).
