Sorry, plas. I cannot type the sentence here due to my coding system.
It is in the book "Look Homeward, Angel" by Thomas Wolfe. It's the first sentence in Chapter 23, a fairly long sentence.
Would any pal type it in Greek here, and give the English translation for it?
And, the last question: Does this sentence come from <Anabasis> by Xenephon?
Thank you so much, pals!

It would be good if you could upload a pic of it somewhere.

Έντεύθεν έξελαύνει σταθμόυς τρείς παρασύγγας πεντεκαίδεκα έπί τόν Εύφράτην ποταμόν.

Yes, this is from "Cyrus's Anabasis" by Xenophon.

In English:  Thence he (Cyrus) marches/marched on three stages, fifteen parasangs, to the river Euphrates, ...

Took me a while to find the passage (just 'cause I am dense in the mornings)

The translation could be "from there he marched (on) 3 stages, 15 parasangs to the Euphrates river"

It is indeed "Cyrus's Anabasis" by Xenophon Book A, Chapter 4 (section 11 here; you can also see an English translation which I haven't checked but is very, very good for certain here)

I think book editors should make use of our services. Two mistakes in one simple line!
