Quibus non sine magno terrore perspectis, stipatus armatarum cohortium globis, cum primatibus fidentissimus imperator, ut flagitabat maior vis et atrocior, lunari acie sinuatisque lateribus, occursuros hosti manipulos instruebat. Et ne sagittariorum procursus nostrorum cuneos disiectaret, illatis concitatius signis, spiculorum impetum fregit, datoque ad decernendum sollemniter signo, denseti Romani pedites confertas hostium frontes, nisu protruserunt acerrimo.
