Attica meretrix carnifice iam fatigato postremo linguam suam comesam in faciem tyranni saevientis exspuit, ut exspueret et vocem, ne coniuratos confiteri posset, si etiam victa voluisset.
The Attic harlot, when the torturer was tired out, at last chewed off her own tongue and spat it in the face of the raging tyrant'so to say, to spit out her voice, so that she could not now betray the conspirators, even if overcome by pain she had wished to do it.
