         "here the fortune of the day turned, and all things
         became adverse to the romans; the place deep with ooze,
         sinking under those who stood, slippery to such as
         advanced; their armor heavy, the waters deep; nor could
         they wield, in that uneasy situation, their weighty
         javelins. the barbarians on the contrary, were inured
         to encounter in the bogs, their persons tall, their
         spears long, such as could wound at a distance." in
         this morass the roman army, after an ineffectual
         struggle, was irrecoverably lost; nor could the body of
         the emperor ever be found. such was the fate of decius,
         in the fiftieth year of his age; . . .   --gibbon
