He endeavoured, without lofs of time, to put himfelf in a pofture to renew the engagement. His cavalry, by good f...ortune, in thefe hazardous circumftancef? were vidlorious on both the wings, and were gone in purfuit of the enemy. He ordered the ground to be cleared ; and his columns-, in the original form of the aftion, having been fbmewhat difplaced^ he ordered thofe of the firft line to clofe to the centre ; thofe of the fecond and third to divide, and, gaining the flanks, to form in a con- tinued line with the front. In this manner, while the ground was clearing of the dead, probably by the Velites or irregular troops, he, with the leaft pofhble lofs of time, and without any interval of con- fufion, completed his line to receive the enemy.
