datum hoc forsan nomini familiaeque suae, ut adversus maximos conatus Samnitium opponerentur duces spoliaque ea referrent, quae insignia publicis etiam locis decorandis essent. deos inmortales cumiratos adesse propter totiens petita foedera, totiens rupta, tur, si qua coniectura mentis divinae sit, nulli umquam exercitui fuisse infestiores, quam qui nefando sacro mixta hominum pecudumque caede respersus, ancipiti deum irae devotus, hinc foederum cum Romanis ictorum testes deos, hinc iuris iurandi adversus foedera suscepti execrationes horrens, invitus iuraverit, oderit sacramentum, uno tempore deos, cives, hostes metuat.
