there to be buried; but the priests would not
permit it, and had it brought back to the Forum, where it was burnt.
Dio Cassius says, that the Roman people raised an altar on the spot
where the body had been burnt, and endeavoured to make libations and
to offer sacrifices there, as to a Divinity, but that the Consuls
overthrew the altar. Suetonius says, that a pillar was also erected
to him, of about twenty feet in height, with the inscription,
'parenti patriae,' 'To the father of his country,' and that for some
time persons resorted to that spot to offer sacrifices and to make
vows. He adds, that he was made a Divinity by a public decree, but
he does not say at what time.

THE END.

_Errors and Anomalies noted by transcriber_

Abbreviations in the form "II.XIV Exp." mean "Book II, Fable XIV,
Explanation" (appended to most Fables).

Hyphenization is inconsistent--for example, the forms "sea monster"
and "sea-monster" both occur--and is not marked unless one form is
clearly anomalous. Errors and omissions in Greek diacritical marks
have been silently corrected.
