On the day preceding the Calends of January,Lucius thought to avail himself of the holiday,under the belief that the enemy would be off their guard,to make a sally by night against their gates,hoping to break through them and bring in his other forces,of which he had abundance in many places.But the legion that was lying in wait near by,and Octavian himself with some praetorian cohorts,attacked him,and Lucius, although he fought valiantly, was driven back. About the same time the mass of the people in Rome openly denounced the war and the victory, because the grain was kept under guard for the soldiers. They broke into houses in search of food, and carried off whatever they could find.
大晦日の日、Luciusは敵も見張りをしていないと信じ、祝日を利用して敵の門を突破し多くの場所に大勢いる味方の軍を引きこむことを狙って敵の門を攻撃しようと考えた。だが見張りに当たっていた軍隊はそこにおり、Octavian自身が平民の歩兵と共にLuciusを攻撃し、Luciusは果敢に戦ったが追い返された。ちょうど同じ頃、食糧が兵士らのために保管されていたため、大勢のローマ市民が戦争と勝利をあからさまに告発した。市民らは食糧を求めて家屋に浸入し、手当たり次第食糧を持ち去った。
