His viginti cohortibus, nullo equitatu, Hirtius ipse aquilam quartae legionis cum inferret, qua nullius pulchriorem speciem imperatoris accepimus, cum tribus Antoni legionibus equitatuque conflixit, hostisque nefarios, huic Iovi<s Optimi> Maximi ceterisque deorum immortalium templis, urbis tectis, libertati populi Romani, nostrae vitae sanguinique imminentis prostravit, fudit, occidit, ut cum admodum paucis, nocte tectus, metu perterritus, princeps latronum duxque fugerit.
With these twenty cohorts and no cavalry, Hirtius, himself bearing forward the eagle of the Fourth Legion'history has no finer picture of an imperator to show'clashed with the three legions and cavalry of Antonius and laid low, routed, slew those wicked enemies, who were threatening this Temple of Jupiter Best and Greatest and the other temples of the immortal gods, the roofs of Rome, the liberty of the Roman people, and our lives and lifeblood. Consequently, the chief and leader of the bandits fled in a panic, under cover of darkness, with a very few companions.
