Description

He had (apparently) only recently touched a sword and a spear, could not mount a horse, and if he found himself on horseback would panic and feel dizzy
ἦν γὰρ ... χθὲς καὶ πρῴην ἡμμνένος ξίφους καὶ δόρατος, καὶ μὴδ᾽ ἐπιβῆναι ἐφ᾽ ἵππον εἰδώς, ἀλλ᾽ εἰ καὶ τύχοι ἐπιβεβηκὼς κᾷθ᾽ οὕτως ἐξιππάσασθαι βούλοιτο, ταραχὴν εἶχε καὶ σάλον. Anna Komnene 262.52-55
