^{page 230 note 5} An assertion in ch. 3, ‘ uictor omnibus super stitibus ciuibus peperci,’ is directly refuted by Suetonius, Diuus Augustus, chs. 13, 15, 17, 27. In ch. 1, ‘ rem publicam factione paucorum oppressam in libertatem uindicaui’ is a highly deceptive way of describing the establishment of the triumvirate.

^{page 230 note 6} The nearest corroborative statement is found in Cassius Dio, 50. 4. §§ 1–3; but here it is merely related that public opinion eventually became incensed against Antony, which is very far from saying that Italy took the initiative in calling Octavian to arms. The panegyrics showered upon Octavian after Actium cannot be safely quoted as evidence for the previous state of feeling in Italy.

^{page 231 note 1} The spirit in which the incriminating stories of Antony's un-Roman conduct were received in Rome is well illustrated in Velleius Paterculus (II. 83. 3), Cassius Dio (50. 2. §§ 3–6), and Phitarch (Antoniusch. 57 fin., 59 init.). Particular significance attaches to the memorable sitting of for fear he should thereby ruin many deserving the Senate on January 1, 32, in which the consuls all but carried a motion against Octavian (Cassius Dio, loc. cit.), and to the apparently misplaced pity which the Romans felt for Antony on hearing how he had divorced Octavia (Plutarch, ch. 57 fin.). Ferrero aptly quotes Horace's striking appeal to the triumvirs, ‘quo, quo scelesti ruitis?’ (Epode 7), which may safely be attributed to the period 32–31 B.C.Google Scholar

^{page 231 note 3} Op. cit., p. 85. Cassius Dio (50. 4, § 3) suggests that Octavian did not outlaw Antony for fear he should thereby ruin many deserving Romans who happened at the time to be in Antony's camp;but he refutes himself by going on to relate that the case of Antony's friends was met by means of a special decree which promised indemnity to deserters from his side.Google Scholar

^{page 232 note 2} The federation of discontented Italians which caused the outbreak of the Social War of 91–88 B.C. seems to have dispatched business with fair rapidity. But the area covered by the insurgents was far less than the tota Italia of the Monumentum Ancyranum.Google Scholar

^{page 232 note 4} If Octavian could be conceived after the lapse of the triumvirate as retaining the pro consular imperium inherent in his triumviral powers so long as he received no successor to take charge of his army and himself remained outside the pomerium, this imperium had been forfeited by his entry into Rome in rhe early part of 32 B.C.
