Sed cum fornacibus ferrum quod excudi oportebat impositum esset, admotisque follibus ignem flatu accenderent, sanguinis rivi sub ipsis flammis exstitisse dicuntur; idque omen in Macedonum interitum verterunt Tyrii.
But when the iron which it was necessary to forge had been placed in the furnaces, and the fires were fanned into a blaze by the application of bellows, streams of blood are said to have flowed out in the very midst of the flames, and this the Tyrians interpreted as portending the destruction of the Macedonians.
