- ...L. Cornelius Cinna.
- ...Cn. Octavius.
REported there are by Cassiodorus and the Sicilian registers for Consuls this yeere, L. Cinna and Cn. Octavius. Appian, Vel∣leius, and the rest, who have recorded the histo∣rie of this time, name them L. Cornelius Cinna, and Cn. Octavius. Plutarch writeth, that L. Cin∣na, being of the adverse faction to L. Sulla, was by him made Consull, upon condition, that he should not crosse nor stand against the pro∣ceeding of the said Lu. Sulla: and so soone as hee was entred into place of government, hee began to trouble and disquiet the present state of the common-weale, yea and intended an action against Sulla, by the meanes of Virgi∣nius a Tribune of the commons. Howbeit Sul∣la contemning Virginius, made an expedition against Mithridates.
