                                                  Context<hr>

lay them in the tomb of Octavian. The entire people welcomed her with sadness, showing that they mourned the loss of Germanicus more than they feared the malice of Tiberius.

Here he is no longer able to arouse jealousy about his integrity. The slightest details of his life are so glorious that even slander itself can find nothing to reproach. So, Romans, weep for our common misfortune, for if I have lost a husband, you have lost your protector. Look around this urn, the six children of<hr>
