Datae ad id vires, et praecesserat terror. Ipse peditem atque equites lento itinere, quo novarum gentium animi ipsa transitus mora terrerentur, in hibernis locavit. Et simul classis secunda tempestate ac fama Trutulensem portum tenuit, unde proximo latere Britanniae lecto omni redierat.
Lang. lib. iv. cap. 8, says is: "Hac etiam tempestate Romanus Patricius et Exarchus Ravennae Romam properavit. Qui dum Ravennam revertitur retenuit civitates, quae a Langobardis tenebantur, quarum ista sunt nomma: Sutrium, Polimartium Hortas, Tuder, Ameria, Perusia, Luceolis et alias quasdam civitates.

"Frugifera et ferta arva Asiae tenet." Let us therefore use the propriety of words of our own language, rather than the brilliancy of the Greeks; unless perchance we are ashamed of speaking in such a way as this "Quâ tempestate Paris Helenam," and the rest of that sentence. Let us, I say, pursue that plan and avoid harshness of sound. "Habeo istam ego perterricrepam.... Versutiloquas malitias."
Observe also the juxtaposition of tempestate and fama in this same chapter. Separare, sc. consilia, i.e. they sometimes act in concert, sometimes provide only for their individual safety. Pignorum. Cf. note G. 7: pignora Saevisse. Laid violent hands.
