Et quia nullo ordine iam sed per procursus pugnabatur et globos, quod desperationis erat signum extremae, flexo in vesperam die, digressi omnes rediere ad tentoria tristes, inconsideratae dementiae alter alterum arguentes, quod non (ut suaserat antea Fritigernus), obsidionales aerumnas ubique declinarunt.
And since they no longer fought in any order, but rushed forward in detached groups (a sign of extreme discouragement) as the day was drawing towards evening all the enemy retired disconsolate to their tents, accusing one another of reckless folly because they had not, as Fritigern had earlier advised, wholly held aloof from the miseries of a siege.
