Toubias the Ammonite chief announces that, in response to Apollonios' letter, he has sent to the king, who was a great collector of strange animals, a gift consisting of horses, dogs, asses, and various speciments of cross-breeding with the wild ass, all of them domesticated. He also sends a letter to the king about the gift, to be delivered through Apollonios; and to reassure him about the contents of this letter he gives a copy of it below. It contains in fact nothing but a list of the animals.
