9. τοῦ δ᾽ οὖν Ἀντωνίνου τό τε σῶμα ἐκαύθη, καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ ἐν τῷ Ἀντωνινείῳ, 1 κρύφα νυκτὸς ἐς τὴν Ῥώμην κομισθέντα, ἐτέθη: πάνυ γὰρ πάντες οἱ βουλευταὶ καὶ οἱ ἰδιῶται, καὶ ἄνδρες καὶ γυναῖκες, ἰσχυρότατα αὐτὸν ἐμίσησαν, ὥστε καὶ λέγειν καὶ ποιεῖν πάντ᾽ ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ ὡς καὶ πολεμιωτάτῳ. [2] δόγματι μὲν γὰρ οὐκ ἠτιμώθη διὰ τὸ τοὺς στρατιώτας τῆς μὲν εἰρήνης, ἧς ἀντήλπισαν παρὰ τοῦ Μακρίνου λήψεσθαι, μὴ τυχεῖν, τῶν δὲ δὴ κερδῶν, ὧν παρ᾽ ἐκείνου ἐλάμβανον, στερομένους πάλιν αὐτὸν ποθῆσαι, ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐς τοὺς ἥρωας μετὰ τοῦτ᾽ ἐκνικησάντων αὐτῶν ἐσεγράφη, καὶ [3] τοῦτο καὶ τῇ βουλῇ δῆλον ὅτι ἐψηφίσθη. ἄλλως δὲ 2 πολλὰ καὶ κακὰ ὑπὸ πάντων ἤκουεν ἀεί: οὐδὲ γὰρ Ἀντωνῖνον ἔτ᾽ αὐτὸν ἐκάλουν, 3 ἀλλ᾽ οἱ μὲν Βασσιανὸν τὸ ἀρχαῖον ὄνομα, οἱ δὲ Καράκαλλον, ὥσπερ εἶπον, οἱ δὲ καὶ Ταραύταν ἐκ μονομάχου τινὸς προσηγορίας 4 τό τ᾽ εἶδος καὶ σμικροτάτου καὶ κακοειδεστάτου καὶ τὴν ψυχὴν καὶ θρασυτάτου καὶ μιαιφονωτάτου.
