The conquered Latians, with like pious care,

Piles without number for their dead prepare.

Part, in the places where they fell, are laid;

And part are to the neighbouring fields conveyed.

The corps of kings, and captains of renown,

Borne off in state, are buried in the town;

The rest, unhonoured, and without a name,

Are cast a common heap to feed the flame.
