Idem praestando Petelini eundem laudis honorem meruerunt. ab Hannibale, quia deficere nostra amicitia noluerant, obsessi legatos ad senatum auxilium inplorantes miserunt. quibus propter recentem Cannensem cladem succurri non potuit. ceterum permissum est uti facerent quod utilissimum incolumitati ipsorum uideretur. liberum ergo erat Karthaginiensium gratiam amplecti. illi tamen feminis omnique aetate inbelli urbe egesta, quo diutius armati famem traherent, pertinacissime in muris constiterunt, expirauitque prius eorum tota ciuitas quam ulla ex parte respectum Romanae societatis deposuit. itaque Hannibali non Peteliam, sed fidum Peteliae sepulcrum capere contigit.
