"There I stood in the middle of the room, laden with all her purchases, and not knowing where I was to put them down. She tumbled them all onto the floor, and threw her arms round my neck, saying: "'I pay my debts, I pay my debts! That's the law of the Cales.* * Calo, feminine calli, plural cales.

These were Cales in the middle of the Campanian plain, whence the movements of Teanum and Capua could be observed, and Fregellae , which commanded the passage of the Liris.

Some authors also relate, that he read the decree of the senate before he beheaded them, but that as there was a clause in it, to the effect, that if he thought proper he should refer the entire question to the senate, he construed it that the decision as to what was most for the interest of the state was left to himself. He returned from Cales to Capua.
