A Friend of Caesar

CHAPTER XXI
24/47

The long ranks of the Pompeians were splendid with all the bravery of war.
On the right wing by the river lay his Cilician and Spanish cohorts, led by Lentulus Crus,--the flower of the Pompeian infantry.

Scipio held the centre with two Syrian legions.

On the left, Domitius was in command and Pompeius accompanied him.

Seven cohorts were behind in the fortified camp.

A great mass of auxiliaries and volunteers, as well as two thousand reenlisted veterans, gave strength to the lines of fully recruited cohorts.
