(c) Trebellius segnior et nullis castrorum experimentis, comitate quadam curandi provinciam tenuit. Didicere iam barbari quoque ignoscere vitiis blandientibus, et interventus civilium armorum praebuit iustam segnitiae excusationem: sed discordia laboratum, cum adsuetus expeditionibus miles otio lasciviret. Trebellius, fuga ac latebris vitata exercitus ira indecorus atque humilis, precario mox praefuit, ac velut pacti, exercitus licentiam, dux salutem esset, seditio sine sanguine stetit. Nec Vettius Bolanus, manentibus adhuc civilibus bellis, agitavit Britanniam disciplina: eadem inertia erga hostis, similis petulantia castrorum, nisi quod innocens Bolanus et nullis delictis invisus caritatem paraverat loco auctoritatis.— TACITUS, Agricola. What is the reference in civilium armorum? (d) Inerat conscientia derisui fuisse nuper falsum e Germania triumphum, emptis per commercia, quorum habitus et crines in captivorum speciem formarentur: at nunc veram magnamque victoriam tot milibus hostium caesis ingenti fama celebrari. Id sibi maxime formidolosum, privati hominis nomen supra principis attolli: frustra studia fori et civilium artium decus in silentium acta, si militarem gloriam alius occuparet; cetera utcumque facilius dissimulari, ducis boni imperatoriam virtutem esse. Talibus curis exercitus, quodque saevae cogitationis indicium erat, secreto suo satiatus, optimum in praesentia statuit reponere odium, donec impetus famae et favor exercitus languesceret. lbid.

Translate into Greek : After two years of skirmishing rather than real warfare in the Peloponnesus, the Lacedæmonians found it necessary to act with more vigour, and accordingly they assembled a very large army under the command of the Spartan king, Agis. The Boeotians, with whom Sparta had made an alliance, sent a contingent of a 1000 men. In the first part of the campaign he had the Argive army completely at his mercy, but was induced by offers of submission from Argos to let them escape. These offers were retracted when Athenian reinforcements arrived at Argos, and Agis was sent to atone, if he could, for his former mistake. A decisive battle was fought near Mantinea, in which he gained a brilliant victory over the Argives and their allies. SECOND PAPER. REV. PROFESSOR BROWNE. 1.
