Quid, qui Picenae stimulat telluris alumnos, horridus et squamis et equina Curio crista, pars belli quam magna venit! non aequore verso tam creber fractis albescit fluctus in undis, nec coetu leviore, ubi mille per agmina virgo lunatis acies imitatur Martia peltis, perstrepit et tellus et Amazonius Thermodon.
And what of Curio, bristling with scale-armour and plume of horse-hair'Curio, a host in himself, who urged on the men of Picenum? Thick and fast they come, like the billows on a stormy sea that whiten amid the breaking waves; less active are the riders, when the Warrior Maidf with the crescent-shaped shield reviews her thousand squadrons in mimic warfare, till the earth resounds, and Thermodona too, the river of the Amazons.
