ich he had traced in the dust and was slain by a soldier, not knowing who he was;Cf. Plutarch's account, Marcellus 19; Valerius Maximus VIII. 7. Ext. 7; Cicero de Finibus V. 50. that Marcellus was grieved at this, and his burial duly provided for; and that his name and memory were an honour and a protection to his relatives, search even being made for them. Such in the main was the capture of Syracuse,Actually the fall of Syracuse appears to have taken place in the following year, 211 B.C. in which there was booty in such quantity as there would scarcely have been if Carthage, with which the conflict was on evenB.C. 212 terms, had at that time been captured. A few days before Syracuse was taken, Titus Otacilius with eighty five-bankers crossed over from Lilybaeum to Utica. And having entered the harbour before daylight, he captured cargo-ships laden with grain, and disembarking ravaged a considerable area around Utica and drove booty of every kind back to the ships.

In the eighth yearCorrect, though inconsistent with Livy's general chronology, which would make it the seventh year; cf. XXI. xxxii. 3. In xxxviii. 6 also Livy has followed an authority who placed the disasters in Spain in 211 B.C.; cf. note on xxxii. 1. after his arrival in Spain Gnaeus Scipio was killed, on the twenty-ninth day after the death of his brother. Grief for their deaths was not greater in Rome than throughout Spain; in fact among the citizens the destruction of armies and the loss of a province and the national disaster claimed a part in their sorrow, while all Spain mourned for the generals themselves and missed them, Gnaeus more than Publius, because he had been longer in command and had earl
