μάχης καὶ κινδύνου λαβεῖν ταῦτα ὧν ὠρέγετο. ὁ δὲ Σἑ̣?ʼῆρος καὶ πρὸς τὴν σύγκλητον τὰ αὐτὰ ἀνενεγκών, ὡς ἂν μᾶλλον αὐτὸν ἐς πίστιν ὑπαγάγοιτο, νομίσματά τε αὐτοῦ κοπῆναι ἐπέτρεψε, καὶ ἀνδριάντων ἀναστάσεσι ταῖς τε λοιπαῖς τιμαῖς τὴν δοθεῖσαν χάριν ἐπιστώσατο. ἐπεὶ δὲ αὐτῷ τὰ πρὸς τὸν Ἀλβῖνον διὰ σοφίας ἀσφαλῶς εἶχεν, οὐδέ τι δέος ἦν ἀπὸ Βρεττανίας, τό τε Ἰλλυρικὸν στράτευμα σὺν αὑτῷ πᾶν εἶχε, διῳκῆσθαι νομίζων πάντα λυσιτελῶς τῇ ἑαυτοῦ ἀρχῇ ἐπὶ τὸν Νίγρον ἠπείγετο.
