Q. uero Metellus Celtibericum in Hispania gerens bellum, cum urbem Centobrigam obsideret et iam admota machina partem muri, quae sola conuelli poterat, disiecturus uideretur, humanitatem propinquae uictoriae praetulit: nam cum Rhoetogenis filios, qui ad eum transierat, Centrobigenses machinae ictibus obiecissent, ne pueri in conspectu patris crudeli genere mortis consumerentur, quamquam ipse Rhoetogenes negabat esse inpedimento quominus etiam per exitium sanguinis sui expugnationem perageret, ab obsidione discessit. quo quidem tam clementi facto etsi non unius ciuitatis moenia, omnium tamen Celtiberarum urbium animos cepit effecitque ut ad redigendas eas in dicionem populi Romani non multis sibi obsidionibus opus esset.
