He was equally successful here.

The oldest son was wounded in battle, and was carried off from the field upon a litter faint and almost dying.

He recovered in some degree, and, finding escape from the eager pursuit of Caesar's soldiers impossible, he concealed himself in a cave, where he lingered for a little time in destitution and misery.

He was discovered at last; his head was cut off by his captors and sent to Caesar, as his father's had been.

The younger son succeeded in escaping, but he became a wretched fugitive and outlaw, and all manifestations of resistance to Caesar's sway disappeared from Spain.
