civis Romanos, etc.: this massacre (B.C. 88), in which 80,000 persons perished, was intended by Mithridates as a step toward the entire expulsion of the Romans from Asia. regnat: for tense, see § 466(276, a); B. 259, 4; G. 230; H. 533 (467, 2); H-B. 485.

ppealing to the passions of his hearers, and his statements must be interpreted accordingly. In B.C. 148 Roman ambassadors demanded that the Achaean League give up all its recent acquisitions; at which the incensed populace insulted the ambassadors and drove them away. In the war that followed, Corinth was captured by Mummius and destroyed, while Greece was made into a province by the name of Achaia. The insult to the ambassadors was but a pretext for the war, which was, in fact, merely one act in the general Roman policy of conquest. The extinction of the "eye of Greece," too, was not from motives of vengeance, but in order to remove a powerful rival to Roman commerce. legatum, etc.: M'. Aquilius, the person referred to, had in fact forfeited all claim to the inviolability of an ambassador by actually taking command of an army against Mithridates. He was taken prisoner and put to death (B.C. 88). Aquilius had done service to the state by suppressing the Servile War in Sicily.

ecial favor of the gods, which it would be presumptuous to arrogate to one's self (hence timide), although Sulla had done so by assuming the cognomen Felix (see Rosc. Am., sect. 12, p. 6, l. 7, and note). Maximo: Quintus Fabius Maximus, "the shield of Rome"; Marcello: Marcus Claudius Marcellus, "the sword of Rome," both distinguished in the Second Punic War. Scipioni: either Africanus the elder, or Aemilianus; from sect. 60 it might appear to be the latter. Mario: Caius Marius, who vanquished Jugurtha, subdued the Cimbri and Teutones, and afterwards (B.C. 88) engaged in civil war with Sulla. saepius, repeatedly: Marius was consul seven times. fuit (emphatic), there really has been; § 598, d (2) (344, d, 2). hac moderatione: a shorthand expression for hoc modo moderato, in which moderato would refer merely to the result clause ut videamur. non ut (not to be confounded with ut non), etc., i.e. not of such a kind as to say, etc., but such, etc. invisa: because presumptuous.

sents a procession such as was usual on occasions of this kind. Fig. 37 (from an ancient lamp) shows the images at such a feast. duce, i.e. in actual command; imperatore, i.e. holding the sovereign power, whether actually commanding that particular operation or not. dissensiones: for case, see § 350, d (219, b); G.376, a.2; H. 455 (407, N.1); H.-B. 350, b. P. Sulpicium [Rufum], a young man of remarkable eloquence, a leader in the reforming party among the aristocracy. He was tribune B.C. 88, and his quarrel with C. Caesar was the first act of the Civil War. By his proposition, the command in the Mithridatic War was transferred from Sulla to Marius; and when Sulla refused to obey, and marched upon the city, Sulpicius was one of the first victims. conlegam: Lucius Cornelius Cinna, the Marian partisan (see note on p. 130, l. 16). He and Cn. Octavius, a partisan of Sulla, were consuls B.C. 87, after the departure of Sulla for the East, and in their dissensions the Civil War br
