Paulus as soon as he was entred Amphipolis order'd a Sacrifice to be made to return thanks to the Gods for so signal a Victory; who testified their acceptance of his devotion by a Prodigy, for the heap of Wood prepared on the Altar was set on fire by Lightning from Heaven, by which lucky token Jove did not only seem to approve of the Victors Vows and Prayers, but himself did as it were consecrate the worship and honour paid to his own Divinity. Thence the Consul follow'd Nasica whom he had sent before to plunder the Country, and march'd to Odomantiae, the next City in those parts under the Hill Orbelus, and on the Fron∣tiers both of the Dardanians and Thracians; that he might leave no shadow of an Enemy behind him, nor any place untoucht with his Victorious Arms; and from thence removing to Siree, he kept there a standing Camp for some time.
