Translation
[Meaning] having leaped away, having skipped away.
Polybius [writes]: "having jumped away from the blow, the horse was carried off headlong through the central area of the encampment."1
Or meaning having collapsed.
And in another place: "though Scipio's horse was disabled from the blow, it did not completely collapse. Therefore Scipio fell to the ground on his feet." Polybius [sc. writes this].2
