Hic tum, ut ait Ennius, nostri cessere parumper. Itaque praeter consuetudinem cum a nostris animadversum esset cedere, centuriones ex legione V. flumen transgressi duo restituerunt aciem, acriterque eximia virtute pluris cum agerent, ex superiore loco multitudine telorum alter eorum concidit.
Hereupon, as Ennius puts it, our men gave ground for a brief space. Consequently, when our men observed that they were giving ground more than their wont, two centurions from the Fifth legion crossed the river and restored the battle line; and as they drove their more numerous enemies back, displaying dash and gallantry of an exceptional order, one of them succumbed to a heavy volley of missiles discharged from higher ground.
