52 B. O that their lives were more precious to him than his own reputation. For the first, but not for the last time they had been forced to abandon an operation which they had begun ; and perhaps when Caesar led them back to resume the labour of the siege, he suspected that he had himself been duped. ^ Vercingetorix, on returning to the encampment, was accused of treachery. His officers told him to his face that he would never have left them without a leader, exposed to that well-timed attack,... if he had not intended to betray them. He ought never to have moved from his original position. It was plain enough that he wanted to reign as Caesar's creature, not by the choice of his countrymen. Vercingetorix was at no loss for an answer. He had moved, he reminded them, at their own request, simply in order to get forage ; and they had not been in the slightest danger, for the position in which he had left them was impregnable. He had pm-posely refrained from delegating his command to any one, for fear they should worry his substitute into risking a battle ; for he knew that they had not resolution enough to adhere to a system of warfare which required patient toil.
