id luce proxima consulibus sacrificio vel expiaturis, si posset averti, vel, si certum deorum etiam monitu visum foret, exsecuturis hostiarum exta somnio congruerunt, convenitque inter eos cuius cornu prius laborare coepisset, ut is capite suo fata patriae lueret.

The victims entrails agreeing with the dream, they settled between them that whosever wing came into trouble first, he should discharge the countrys fates with his own life.
