Et timore simul quia venisse in maiorem numerum copiae putabantur hostiles, egere nostri tunc segnius, sed ubi animis in audaciam restitutis, armisque raptis inter tumultum, exercitus cantu concitus bucinarum, cum minaci murmure festinaret, eruptores perterriti reverterunt intacti.
And from fear, and at the same time because they thought that the enemy had gained greater numbers, our men for a time were held irresolute; but when they had recovered their courage, had armed themselves as well as they could in the confusion, and our army, aroused by the trumpets blast, was hastening to the spot with threatening cries, the attacking force retreated in terror, though without loss.
