Hostilities had ceased everywhere, but a considerable number of the Senate,
who had accompanied Otho from Rome, and had been
afterwards left at Mutina, encountered the utmost
peril. News of the defeat was brought to this place. The soldiers, however,
rejected it as a false report; and judging the Senate to be hostile to Otho,
watched their language, and put an unfavourable construction on their looks
and manner. Proceeding at last to abuse and insults, they sought a pretext
for beginning g that the party of Vitellius was in the ascendant,
feared that they might seem to have been tardy in welcoming the conqueror.
Thus they met in great alarm and distracted by a twofold apprehension; no
one was ready with any advice of his own, but looked for safety in sharing
any mistake with many others. The anxieties of the terrified assembly
were aggravated when the Senate of Mutina
made them an offer of arms and money, and, with an ill-timed compliment,
styled them "Conscript Fathers."
