Hormine id ingenium, ut Messala tradit, an potior
auctor sit C. Plinius, qui Antonium incusat, haud facile discreverim, nisi quod neque Antonius neque Hormus a fama
vitaque sua quamvis pessimo flagitio degeneravere. non iam
sanguis neque vulnera morabantur quin subruerent vallum
quaterentque portas, innixi umeris et super iteratam testudinem scandentes prensarent hostium tela brachiaque. integri cum sauciis, semineces cum expirantibus volvuntur, varia pereuntium forma et omni imagine mortium.
Historiae. Cornelius Tacitus. Charles Dennis Fisher. Clarendon Press. Oxford. 1911.
