BOOK X
32/124

The consul then, leading back his forces into the Faliscian territory, and leaving his baggage with a small guard at Falerii, set out with his troops, lightly accoutred, to ravage the enemy's country.

All places are destroyed with fire and sword; plunder driven from every side; and not only was the ground left a mere waste to the enemy, but their forts and small towns were set on fire; he refrained from attacking the cities into which fear had driven the Etrurians.

The consul Cneius Fulvius fought a glorious battle in Samnium, near Bovianum, attended with success by no means equivocal.

Then, having attacked Bovianum, and not long after Aufidena, he took them by storm.
This year a colony was carried out to Carseoli, into the territory of the Aequicolae.

The consul Fulvius triumphed on his defeat of the Samnites.
