...P. Mucius.
...L. Calpurnius.

THis yeere had Consuls, P. Mucius, and Lu. Calpurnius, as witnesseth Cassiodorus. The Sicilian registers shew Scaevola and Calpurnius. Valleius nameth P. Mucius Scaevola and L. Cal∣purnius. Of these Consuls Paedianus upon the Orations against Verres, maketh mention in these words: Scaevola a right learned man in the lawes was Consull with L. Piso, that yeere where∣in Tab. Gracchus was killed. In the broken mar∣bles of the capitoll he standeth by the name of L. Calpurnius Piso, surnamed also Frugi, & that truly. For Cicero in one Oration against Verres and in another for Fonteius writeth, that he was the first of the Pisones, called Frugi. This man, when he was Tribune or Provost of the Com∣mons, made a law against the extortion of ma∣gistrates, when Martius & Manilius were Con∣suls: he wrote also the annaples of Rome, as Ci∣cero testifieth in his booke Brutus.
