Felicior progenie sua superior Cato, a quo Porciae familiae principia manarunt. qui cum ab hoste in acie uehementer † paruulo peteretur, uagina gladius eius elapsus decidit. quem subiectum proeliantium globo atque undique hostilibus pedibus circumdatum postquam abesse sibi animaduertit, adeo constanti animo in suam potestatem redegit, ut illum non periculo oppressus rapere, sed metu uacuus sumere uideretur. quo spectaculo adtoniti hostes postero die ad eum supplices pacem petentes uenerunt.
Valerius Maximus. Factorvm et Dictorvm Memorabilivm, Libri Novem. Karl Friedrich Kempf. Leipsig. Teubner. 1888. Keyboarding.
