IVlia daughter to Caesar and wife to Pompeius departed this life, and had this surpassing honour done unto her by the people, as to be enterred in Marsfield. Many of the States of France revolted by the leading of Ambiorix a duke of the Eburones, by whom Cotta & T. Aurunculeius the lieutenants of Cae∣sar, were by an ambuscado surprised and environed, and by meanes thereof they and the armies whereof they had the conduct, were put to the sword. And at what time as the campe of the other legions also were besieged, assailed, and with difficultie defended, & among them Q. Cicero, who was lord president of the Trevires; the enemies were by Caesar himselfe in person overthrowne in fight. M. Crassus inten∣ding to warre upon the Parthians, passed over the river Euphrates, and being vanquished in battell, wherein his owne sonne was slaine, after hee had rallied the broken ends of his armie, and retired them to a little hill, he was trained forth by the enemies (whose captaine was Su••••••as) to a parley and treatie of peace, and therupon attached: but because he would not suffer any indignitie and villanie alive, he made resistance, and in that struggling of his was slaine, and there an end of him.
