8. his magno opere laetus consul ab Dio ad Philan ducit, simul ut praesidium eius firmaret, simul ut militi frumentum, cuius tarda subvectio erat, divideret. [2] ea profectio famam haudquaquam secundam habuit. nam alii metu recessisse eum ab hoste ferebant quia manenti in Pieria proelio dimicandum foret, [3?] alii ignarum belli quae in dies fortuna novaret, ut opperientibus sese rebus, emisisse1 de manibus ea quae mox repeti non possent. [4] simul enim cessit possessione Dii, excitavit hostem, ut tunc sentiret recuperanda esse quae prius culpa amissa forent. [5] audita enim profectione consulis regressus Dium, quae disiecta ac vastata ab Romanis erant, reficit, pinnas moenium decussas reponit, ab omni parte muros firmat; deinde quinque milia passuum ab urbe citra ripam Elpei amnis2 castra ponit, amnem ipsum transitu perdifficilem pro munimento habiturus. [6] fluit ex valle Olympi montis, aestate exiguus, hibernis idem incitatus pluviis et [p. 116] supra rupes ingentis gurgites facit et infra prorutam3 4 in mare evolvendo terram praealtas voragines cavatoque medio alveo ripas utrimque praecipitis. [7] hoc flumine saeptum iter hostis5 credens extrahere reliquum tempus aestatis in animo habebat. [8] inter haec consul a Phila Popilium cum duobus milibus armatorum Heracleum6 mittit. [9] abest a Phila quinque milia ferme passuum, media regione inter Dium Tempeque in rupe amni imminente positum.
