20. Capua a consulibus iterum summa vi obsideri coepta est, quaeque in eam rem opus erant comportabantur parabanturque. [2] Casilinum frumentum convectum; ad Volturni ostium, ubi nunc urbs est, castellum communitum in eoque et Puteolis—triennio ante Fabius Maximus munierat—praesidium impositum, ut mare proximum [3] et flumen in potestate essent. in ea duo maritima castella frumentum, quod ex Sardinia nuper missum erat quodque M. Iunius praetor ex Etruria eoemerat, ab Ostia convectum est, ut exercitui per hiemem copia esset. [4] ceterum super eam cladem, quae in Lucanis accepta erat, volonum quoque exercitus, qui vivo Graccho summa fide stipendia fecerat, velut exauctoratus morte ducis ab signis discessit.

Fulvium praetorem Apuli legati nuntiabant primo, dum urbes quasdam Apulorum, quae ad Hannibalem descivissent, oppugnaret, intentius rem egisse; postea nimio successu et ipsum et milites praeda impletos in tantam licentiam socordiamque effusos, ut nulla disciplina militiae esset. [7] cum saepe alias, tum paucis diebus ante expertus, qualis sub inscio duce exercitus esset, in Apuliam castra movit.
