[*] 113.1. geruntur: § 556 (276. e); B. 293. i; G. 229. R.; H. 533. 4 (467. iii. 4); H-B. 559. Notice that this present is regular with dum when there is no contrast of time. Cf. the use of dum, 107 26.—frumentatum: supine; cf. 26 15. [*] 113.3. pars hominum, some of the people. [*] 113.4. remaneret: indicating peaceable intentions on the part of the enemy.—ventitaret, returned from time to time （freq. or iter., § 263. 2 (167. b); B. 155. 2; G. 191. 1; H. 364 (336); H-B. 212. 1）. [*] 113.5. statione: such outposts or pickets were always on duty to guard the camp, usually a cohort at each gate. [*] 113.6. quam … ferret, than usual. [*] 113.7. id quod erat, what was the fact. [*] 113.8. aliquid … consili （part. gen.）, that some new design was on foot; infin. clause in app. with id. [*] 113.11. armari, to arm; in verbs thus used reflexively, English prefers the active and Latin the passive form.—paulo longius, some little distance. [*] 113.12. premi … sustinere, were getting hard pushed, and hardly held their ground. [*] 113.13. conferta legione （abl. abs.）, the legion was closely crowded together, while weapons were hurled, etc. Observe the tendency of Latin to convey a description, as here, by a participial phrase. [*] 113.15. una, only one.—suspicati, supposing; cf. 107 1 and note. [*] 114.2. dispersos, occupatos: agreeing with nostros understood from the preceding line.
