Then, in rage, Mas- sinissa cast off al) allegiance to Rome and defied Scipio to do bis worst. Scipio did it. He had Maasinissa seized and held prisoner in the Ro- man camp. Then he sent Falvius to Cirta to arrest Sophoniaba and to bring her back, It was a thankless mission. Yet Fulvius had no alter- native but to obey, Pulvius was about to set out to ch he was intercepted by Massi- nissa, who found a chance to speak to him in secret. Massinixssa begged Fulvius (in return for having released | him and Maclate from the cellar at Cirta) to let him send a message to | Sophonisba.
