In eadem prouincia Q. Fabius Maximus ferocissimae gentis animos contundere et debilitare cupiens mansuetissimum ingenium suum ad tempus deposita clementia uti seueritate coegit: omnium enim, qui ex praesidiis Romanorum ad hostes transfugerant captique erant, manus abscidit, ut trunca prae se brachia gestantes metum defectionis reliquis inicerent. rebelles itaque manus a corporibus suis distractae inque cruentato solo sparsae ceteris ne idem committere auderent documento fuerunt.
