is enim ad <P. Rupilium consulem Hennam, quam praedones tenuerant, in potestatem nostram redactam perductus, cum de viribus et conatibus fugitivorum interrogaretur, sumpto tempore ad se colligendum, caput operuit innixusque genibus compresso spiritu inter ipsas custodum manus inque conspectu summi imperii exoptata securitate acquievit
He was brought to Consul P. Rupilius in Henna, a bandit stronghold which we had captured. When asked about the strength and enterprises of the runaways, he took some time to collect himself, then covered his head, fell on his knees, and stopped his breath; so in the very hands of his guards and in the presence of highest command he found rest in the security for which he yearned.
