PART I. CHAPTER V. The civil war betwixt Julius and the people originated in this manner : "In the year of the building of the city Dccxx. , from the Babilonian captivity dxlij. , Caius Julius Cesar, after a ten years' struggle, in which he subdued Gaul, Germany, and Britain, looked for a triumph, or the honours due to such great victories. But Pompey, Cato, and Marcellus were opposed to (granting) it, and ordered him, after disbanding his army, to return to the city. When, however, on his retu...rn to Eome, he had approached the Alps, he gave orders to Pompey, whose daughter he had married, to prepare for him the triumph. Pompey, who fancied that his own dignity would thereby be clouded, with the consent of the Senate, refused. JuUus, enraged at this, hastened against Pompey, who in alarm fled with the Senate and his advisers into Greece, where he prepared for a contest with Julius, who, when he had entered the vacated city, broke into the public treasury, and took from it four thousand one hundred and thirty pounds of gold, and ninety thousand of silver.
