Itur in exsanguem populum bellique iacentis reliquias,qua quemque dolor luctusque, cruenti, exegere, duces; hi tela, hi corpora, at illi caesorum tantum ora vident alienaque iuxta pectora; pars currus deflent viduisque loquuntur, hoc solum quia restat, equis; pars oscula figunt vulneribus magnis et de virtute queruntur.
They come to the lifeless multitude, the remnants of the fallen army, each where grief and mourning, their bleeding guides, drive them. Some see weapons and bodies, but others only the faces of the slain and alien breasts beside them. Part mourn the chariots and speak to the widowed horses, since this is all that remains; part plant kisses on great wounds and complain of valour.
