  4 I   |         earth! and to you, strong men in shining armour who have
  5 I   |          two long shadows of pale men, clad in white, red-fringed
  6 I   |         thy protection the strong men of former days who went
  7 I   |         with the fear inspired by men. The Barbarians heeded them
  8 I   |        the agitation of all these men.~Matho, the Libyan, leaned
  9 I   |          Ah! what riches! and the men who possess them have not
 10 I   |         But here there are strong men whose hatred is roused!
 11 II  |           to all this talk. These men, accustomed as they were
 12 II  |           besides, especially the men of the North, vaguely uneasy,
 13 II  |    hastened hither to receive the men. They stood ranged along
 14 II  |          camp they perceived some men covered with white cloaks;
 15 II  |           him, recalled the young men who once used to entreat
 16 II  |         not aside at the cries of men! Weeping like a coward!
 17 II  |       with the daughters of other men! Have you seen her great
 18 II  |          female voices.~Every day men came flocking in nearly
 19 II  |      lofty heads of hair, and the men of the desert listened motionless,
 20 II  |       like grapes! The fine young men! the slingers! my companions
 21 II  |         the guards, who were rich men and accustomed to such refinements.
 22 II  |         confusion: mules, serving men, litter, provisions, and
 23 II  |       every path and every ravine men arose. Shepherds were seen

 28 IV  |       passage so narrow that four men abreast jostled one another
 29 IV  |     wearing helmets. Amid serving men and itinerant vendors there
 30 IV  |         desiring to provoke brave men, nor with ingratitude enough
 31 IV  |           Greeks, Balearians, and men of Italy are paid, they
 32 IV  |          were spent in paying the men of Magdala, Leptis, and
 33 IV  |       there arrived whirlwinds of men, as it were; the tents strained

 35 IV  |         been insulted. These rich men were a kind of appendage
 36 V   |         and the torrent of flying men streamed on both sides up
 37 VI  |          followed by about twenty men.~They wore white woollen
 38 VI  |          broke a javelin. All his men uttered simultaneously a
 39 VI  |       Havas, and Matho despatched men to all the tribes on Punic
 40 VI  |     Barbarians.~Reinforcements of men poured in at the same time.
 41 VI  |    Iberians, Lusitanians, and the men of the West, and of the
 42 VI  |           perhaps eighty thousand men. The two Tyrian cities would

 44 VI  |         loud crash, and masses of men would tumble into the water,
 45 VI  |         Spendius took care of his men; he dreamed of plans and
 46 VI  |         in the town the principal men came to greet him. He had
 47 VI  |          the abuse of these three men.~“Ah! traitors! ah! wretches!

 50 VII |          found the most important men of his party below in the
 51 VII |          fitted upon poles, which men were carrying to and fro.
 52 VII |        their brother again.~These men were generally thick-set,
 53 VII |           rolling gait, while the men of agriculture smelt of
 54 VII |         Baals; there are intrepid men among you! Gisco, rise!”
 55 VII |          you of rewards for these men? Rather let ten thousand
 56 VII |         centre as if all the dead men lying beneath had stretched
 57 VII |           had never seen him.~But men with head-dresses like the

 61 VII |        door!”~They went in.~Naked men were kneading pastes, crushing
 62 VII |          and he had not all these men before him at the end of
 63 VII |        means of strong bars. Some men were pushing these with
 64 VII |            so as to recognise the men who were subject to the
 65 VII |          and litter-carriers, the men belonging to the vapour-baths,
 66 VII |        against the trees with two men beside them, one counting
 67 VII |        direction of the kitchens, men were brisking up burning
 68 VIII|         sons of Barbarians, freed men. For reward he promised
 69 VIII|           were two thousand young men, each equipped with a sling,
 70 VIII|        would be better! Thus many men had left the ranks and were
 71 VIII|          You will go and get your men! I will bring mine! Warn
 72 VIII|          At last he separated his men into two equal divisions,
 73 VIII|   proceeded with fifteen thousand men as far as the bridge built
 74 VIII|          he would go with all his men to meet him and offer him
 75 VIII|          would check the lines of men that were carried away by
 76 VIII|       called for; thirty thousand men would follow him; he was
 77 VIII|           not time to draw up his men in battle array. By degrees
 78 VIII|      three hundred and ninety-six men, seemed scarcely to contain
 79 VIII|       full squares having sixteen men on each side. All the leaders
 80 VIII|  spoon-headed harpoons, while the men in the towers, who were
 81 VIII|    surging back. They stifled the men with their trunks, or else
 82 VIII|         on the verge of the tents men were sleeping nearly naked,

 84 IX  |          companies of one hundred men each, all with their arms
 85 IX  |       these Mercenaries, who were men of Italiote or Greek race;
 86 IX  |          not undertake it. Twelve men from the Greek colonies

 89 IX  |            oil, wood, cattle, and men. But the inhabitants were

 92 IX  |        joined themselves with the men of Cisalpine Gaul, whose

 95 IX  |          there issued pale faces, men with viper-like profiles
 96 IX  |           were invaded by strange men; the slaves, trembling on
 97 X   |        with a melancholy gaze the men who were disappearing with
 98 X   |   sometimes visited the bodies of men. Did not Schahabarim in
 99 XI  |            twelve, or twenty-five men; many were driving goats
100 XI  |      meantime! At present I crush men like shells, and I throw
101 XI  |       palm tree remaining! And if men fail me I will draw the
102 XI  |         tent, and pointing to his men, who were standing still
103 XII |         states of corruption. The men of the North were puffed
104 XII |        piles were erected for the men of Latin race, the Samnites,
105 XII |        bodkins of their hair. The men came next and tortured them
106 XII |       enough to be indignant with men.~Spendius beckoned to him
107 XII |           disheartened; the brave men of Tunis were coming with
108 XII |           plastered with red. The men’s uncovered heads were growing
109 XII |          an army of five thousand men was ready before the interval
110 XII |         and captured five hundred men; but three days afterwards
111 XII |        made Hanno’s three hundred men ascend their walls; then
112 XII |     thundering voice the lines of men closed up; even the lame
113 XII |          round and shouted to his men to move aside. He dismounted
114 XII |          the lances, knocked down men, and, entangling its feet
115 XII |          as a god, actually found men who were daring enough to
116 XII |           approached; and now the men of the eastern regions were

118 XII |  Gaetulians pressed the yellowish men, who are spread through

120 XII |         isthmus was now hidden by men; and this long surface,
121 XII |        fifteen talents. Masses of men clinging to their bases
122 XII |           husbands. On seeing the men again their hearts could

124 XIII|      gates began to be in motion. Men might be seen mounting from

126 XIII|        big as almonds. There were men all yellow with oil, with
127 XIII|        Spendius stopped him.~Some men bent over a capstan; the
128 XIII|          it laid the basketful of men upon the edge of the wall.
129 XIII|           made a great slaughter. Men hanging to ropes would descend
130 XIII|         by great black flies. Old men carried off the wounded,
131 XIII|        devoured the very corpses.~Men wearing cloaks made of collected
132 XIII|        supported by long files of men were battering at the gates;
133 XIII|      heavy baskets, and masses of men, all with uplifted arms,
134 XIII|     syntagmata composed of sturdy men, chosen expressly for the
135 XIII| south-west gate Autaritus and his men broke down the rampart,

137 XIII|      women, the sick, and the old men; others proposed to abandon
138 XIII|      existence, the very flesh of men, belonged to him; and hence
139 XIII|          Moloch began their task.~Men in black robes presented
140 XIII|        him.~The three black-robed men were waiting in the great

143 XIII|         upon the flames. Then the men in the red cloaks chanted
144 XIII|  shoulders and fell behind, where men by pulling them made the
145 XIII|       vociferating: “They are not men but oxen!” and the multitude
146 XIII|           handed them over to the men in red. The instrument-players
147 XIV |      follow it, and none of their men stirred. But the rest, under
148 XIV |          the night he led all his men along the sea-shore on the
149 XIV |         saviour with six thousand men all carrying meal under

152 XIV |           scarcely descended when men who had been crouching behind
153 XIV |     helmets.~These forty thousand men were massed into the species
154 XIV |       round about them. They were men accustomed to existence
155 XIV |          arms, to rise, to laugh. Men who had swooned came to
156 XIV |        believing in them no more.~Men of violent disposition perished
157 XIV |           freedom of the air. The men closed their eyes that they
158 XIV |          back on perceiving these men, and then bent over to examine
