Shattering was the shock; they shunned nothing
Where the shrubs
brightly shone under the shimmering
trees.
The Roman ranks retreated
a little,
Giving ground in
their rearguard’s direction.
So rapidly they rode that
the air rang
With the sound of
steel and spikes and splendid gold mail.
Cador Launches Battle
