Julian himself (ad S. P. Q. Athen. p. 279) speaks of the
battle of Strasburg with the modesty of conscious merit;
Zosimus compares it with the victory of Alexander
over Darius; and yet we are at a loss to discover any of
those strokes of military genius which fix the attention of
ages on the conduct and success of a single day.
