Metellus in isdem castris quatriduo moratus saucios cum cura reficit, meritos in proeliis more militiae donat, univorsos in contione laudat atque agit gratias, hortatur ad cetera, quae levia sunt, parem animum gerant; pro victoria satis iam pugnatum, relicuos labores pro praeda fore.
Metellus remained in the same camp for four days, giving careful attention to the wounded, rewarding according to military custom those having performed meritorious service in the battles, and praising and thanking all the troops as a body in a public address. He urged them to display equal courage for the easy tasks which remained; their fight for victory had now been brought to a satisfactory conclusion; the rest of their exertions would be for booty.
