Ceterum ut humanae virtutis actum exsequamur, cum Hannibal Capuam, in qua Romanus exercitus erat, obsideret, Vibius Accaus, Paelignae cohortis praefectus, vexillum trans Punicum vallum proiecit, se ipsum suosque commilitones, si signo hostes potiti essent, exsecratus, et ad id petendum subsequente cohorte primus impetum fecit.
To pursue further the action of human valour: when Hannibal was besieging Capua with a Roman army inside, Vibius Accaus, Prefect of a Paelignian cohort, flung his standard across the Punic rampart pronouncing a curse on himself and his comrades should the enemy get possession of the ensign, and dashed forward at the head of the cohort to take it.
