tandem invalidos Aetolus ad ictus forte refert oculos et formidabile ridens, iamdudum video, magnum cupis, improbe, leti nomen, ait; simul audacem non ense nec hasta dignatus leviter digitis imbelle solutis abiecit iaculum: latebras tamen inguinis alte missile, ceu totis intortum viribus, hausit.
At last the Aetolian chanced to turn his eyes to the feeble blows and with a terrible laugh: This while, says he, I see it, overbold; you crave great fame of death. With the words he launched an unwarlike shaft lightly with relaxed fingers, not deeming the audacious adversary worthy of sword or spear. None the less the missile drained deep the hidden places of the groin as though hurled with all his might.
