Then even those whose minds had been, in their last hope, obstinately
bent on fighting, when hopes of life were offered, threw down their arms
in every direction, and surrendered themselves unarmed to the enemy,
which fortune had rendered the safer method. Their number being
considerable, they were distributed among several guards; the town was
before night restored to the Sutrians uninjured and free from all the
calamities of war, because it had not been taken by force but delivered
up on terms.
