Cesena

It is curious to note that there are now no remains of Cesena to commemorate the heroic valour of Marzia.

Marzia took up her station in Cesena, with a garrison of two hundred knights and an equal number of common soldiers.

She stationed herself in Cesena with two hundred soldiers, equipped like knights, and the same number of ordinary troops.

An army ten times more numerous than all the defenders of Cesena soon beleaguered the place.

The father of Marzia at that moment reached Cesena, and his passage had been facilitated by the legate.
