Inde processit Ecbolima et, cum angustias itineris obsideri xx milibus armatorum ab Erice quodam comperisset, gravius agmen exercitus Coeno  ducendum modicis itineribus tradidit, ipse praegressus per funditores ac sagittarios, deturbatis qui obsederant saltum, sequentibus se copiis viam fecit.
From there the king went on to Ecbolima, and when he had found that a narrow part of the road was blocked by a certain Erices with 20,000 armed men, he turned over the heavier part of the army to  Coenus to be led at a moderate pace, and he himself, going ahead, dislodged by slingers and archers those who had beset the narrows, and make a way for the  forces which were following him.
