.....
Lucius started off at full speed and delivered his message. He found the cavalry fretting at their inaction, and delighted to receive the order to charge. The young aide-de-camp whose vain self-confidence had been so severely reproved by the praetor had been told off to do staff duty with the prefect of cavalry, and recognized our hero.
"Ah!" he cried; "well met. Come along with us and see what these fellows are made of."
