Ch. VII. THROUGH ITALY. 283

Constitit ut capto jussus deponere miles
Signa foro, stridor litudm, clangorque tubarum
Non pia concinuit cum rauco classica cornu.
Rupta quies populis, stratisque excita juventus
Diripiunt sacris affixa penatibus anna
Ut notae fulsere aquilae, Romanaque signa,
Et celsus medio conspectus in agmine Caesar,
Piriguers metu, gelidos pavor occupat artus.
Luc. i.—230, ^Co
