By embarking on board some of his ships companies of heavy-armedand archers, who protected his working parties, and at the same timethreatening with other ships to cross at many different points, he wasable, though with much difficulty, to bridge the stream in the face ofa powerful body of the enemy, and to land his troops safely on theopposite bank. This done, his work was more than half accomplished. Chosroes remained aloof from the war, either husbanding his resources, or perhaps occupied by... civil feuds, and left the defence of his outlyingprovinces to their respective governors. Mobarsapes, the Adiabenianmonarch, had set his hopes on keeping the invader out of his kingdom bydefending the line of the Tigris, and when that was forced he seemsto have despaired, and to have made no further effort. His towns andstrongholds were taken one after another, without their offering anyserious resistance. Nineveh, Arbela, and Gaugamala fell into the enemy'shands. Adenystrse, a place of great strength, was captured by a smallknot of Roman prisoners, who, when they found their friends near, roseupon the garrison, killed the commandant, and opened the gates to theircountrymen.
