tles, and exaggerated the number of the enemy that had been slain (Liv. 34.54, 55, 35.3, 11, 20, 21, 36.38, 38.46; Gel. 10.3, 13.24; Meyer, Oratorum Romanorum Fragmenta, pp. 40-44, 2d ed. ). There was also an oration of Cato intitled De suis Virtutibus contra Thermum, which is cited by Festus (pp. 182, 234), and other grammarians. Meyer (Ibid. p. 45, foll.) supposes that Cato accused Thermus in B. C. 189, and that this oration was spoken in this year; but this is improbable, as we know that Thermus served under Scipio Asiaticus in this year in the war against Antiochus.

The Gallograeci had by their many conquests in Asia acquired immense wealth, a large portion of which now fell into the hands of Vulso and his army. (Liv. 38.12-27 ; Plb. 22.16-22; Zonar. 9.20; Appian, Syr. 39, 42.） Manlius Vulso remained in Asia as proconsul in the following year, B. C. 188, when he formally concluded the treaty with Antiochus and settled the affairs of Asia. In the middle of the summer he crossed over from Asia into Europe, marched through Thrace into Macedonia and Epeirus, and passed the winter at Apollonia. In his march through Thrace his army suffered much from the heat and the attacks of the Thracians, and he lost a considerable part of the booty he had obtained in Asia. He reached Rome in B. C. 187 and demanded a triumph, which he obtained with difficul
