[3] tunc pertimescens sollertissimus Caesar, ne observata nocte inluni, barbari gelu vinctum amnem pervaderent, cotidie a sole in vesperam flexo, ad usque lucis principium, lusoriis navibus discurrere flumen ultro citroque milites ordinavit, ut crustis pruinarum diffractis, nullus ad erumpendi copiam facile perveniret. ¹ Hocque commento, inedia et vigiliis et desperatione postrema lassati, sponte se propria [p. 314] dederunt, statimque ad comitatum Augusti sunt missi.
