Sub idem fere tempus, Valentiniano ad expeditionem caute (ut rebatur ipse) profecto, Alamannus regalis (Rando nomine) diu praestruens quod cogitabat, Mogontiacum praesidiis vacuam cum expeditis ad latrocinandum latenter irrepsit.
At about this same time, Valentinian had begun his campaign with wariness, as he himself thought, when a prince of the Alamanni called Rando, after long preparation for his design, with a light-armed band equipped for plundering, secretly made his way into Mogontiacus, which had no garrison.
