Exempla

““Aut hōc inclūsī lignō occultantur Achīvī, aut haec in nostrōs fabricāta est māchina mūrōs, īnspectūra domōs ventūraque dēsuper urbī, aut aliquis latet error ….” “Either the Grecian [warriors], having enclosed [themselves] in this wood[en horse], are hiding [there], or else they have built a [war] machine [for use] against our walls, to watch [our] homes and reach [our] city from above, or it conceals some other deception ….” – Laocoön”

(See: Roman siege engines.)
