      service of Antiochus the Great. He was engaged in the war with Molo, whom he prevented from
      crossing the Tigris. Being placed under the command of Xenoetas, he was left by the latter in
      charge of the camp, when he made his ill-fated attempt to overpower Molo. But he retired on
      the approach of Molo, and suffered the latter to cross the river without opposition. When
      Antiochus himself marched against Molo, Zeuxis persuaded hint to cross the river, and was in
      command of the left wing in the battle that ensued. He also took a prominent part in the siege
      of Seleucia. (<bibl n="Plb. 5.45">Plb. 5.45</bibl>_<bibl n="Plb. 5.60">60</bibl>.) It is
      perhaps this same Zeuxis whom we find satrap of Lydia under Antiochus the Great. (<bibl n="Plb. 21.13">Plb. 21.13</bibl>.) To him Philippus, when at war with Attalus, applied for a
      supply of corn, which he obtained. (<bibl n="Plb. 16.1">Plb. 16.1</bibl>, <bibl n="Plb. 16.24">24</bibl>.) In the decisive battle with the Romans, Zeuxis was one of the commanders of the
      front line (Appian, <hi rend="ital">Syr. 33</hi>), and after the defeat of Antiochus was one
      of the <pb n="1325"/> ambassadors sent to the Scipios to treat for peace, on which mission he
      proceeded to Rome. (<bibl n="Plb. 21.13">Plb. 21.13</bibl>, <bibl n="Plb. 21.14">14</bibl>,
