προεγνωκὼς δὲ αὐτῶν τὴν ἔξοδον ὁ Ῥωμύλος ἐξεληλύθει τὴν κρατίστην δύναμιν ἔχων καὶ ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει τῶν Φιδηναίων εὐτρεπής. ἐπεὶ δʼ ἕτοιμα τὰ πρὸς τὸν ἀγῶνα ἦν, ἀμφότεροι προελθόντες εἰς τὸ πεδίον ἐμάχοντο καὶ διέμειναν ἄχρι πολλῆς ὥρας ἐκθύμως ἀγωνιζόμενοι, τέως ἡ νὺξ ἐπιλαβοῦσα διέκρινεν αὐτοὺς ἴσους κατὰ τὸν ἀγῶνα γενομένους. καὶ ταύτην μὲν τὴν μάχην οὕτως ἠγωνίσαντο·
