280] We are told by Cornelius Nepos, in his life of Atticus, that when Cicero fled from his country Atticus advanced to him two hundred and fifty sesterces, or about L2000. I doubt, however, whether the flight here referred to was not that early visit to Athens which Cicero was supposed to have made in his fear of Sulla. [281] Ad Fam., lib. xiv., iv.: "Tullius to his Terentia, and to his young Tullia, and to his Cicero," meaning his boy. [282] Pro Domo Sua, xxiv. [283] Ad Quin. Fra., 1, 3. [284] The reader who wishes to understand with what anarchy the largest city in the world might still exist, should turn to chapter viii. of book v. of Mommsen's History. [285] Ad Att., lib. iii., 12. [286] Horace, Epis., lib. ii., 1. [287] Ad Att., lib. i., 8. [288] Horace, Epis., lib. ii., 11. The translation is Conington's. [289] Vell. Pat., lib. i., xiii. [290] "Civile;" when Sulla, with Pompey under him, was fighting with young Marius and Cinna. [291] "Africanum;" when he had fought with Domitius, the son-in-law of Cinna, and with Hiarbas. [292] "Transalpinum;" during his march through Gaul into Spain. [293] "Hispaniense;" in which he conquered Sertorius. [294] "Servile;" the war with Spartacus, with the slaves and gladiators. [295] "Navale Bellum;" the war with the pirates. [296] For the full understanding of this oft-quoted line the reader should make himself acquainted with Cato's march across Libya after the death of Pompey, as told by Lucan in his 9th book.
