To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His widow Fulvia threw herself on the corpse, and with cries of passionate grief pointed out the bloody wounds to the populace. Next morning the crowd increased, and in the confusion several men of rank were injured. The two tribunes, Minutius Plancus and Pompeius Rufus (who it seems had been released from prison) called out to the people to carry the body to the Forum just as it was ; and it was immediately borne off and laid on the rostra. The tribunes then mounted the platform and harangued ...the multitude on the atrocity of the crime which *T- 54-55- DEATH OF CLOD! US. 205 Milo had committed. The corpse was carried to the temple of Curia Hostilia, where a funeral pile was hastily constructed of tables and benches, and set on fire. The flames rose and soon caught the rest of the building, which was burnt down, as well as an adjoining basilica. The mob then rushed to attack the house of Lepidus and of Milo, who had concealed himself, but they were driven off by volleys of arrows. In the abeyance of the consular office, the fasces had been placed for safe custody in the temple of Libitina ; and these were seized by the people and carried first to the houses of Scipio and Hypsaeus, the competitors of Milo, and after- wards to the gardens of Pompey, where, with shouts, they proclaimed him at one moment consul and at another dictator.
