[Born at Rome, B.C. 38. Died B.C. 9. Aged 29.]
A son of Livia who married the Emperor Augustus, and brother of
Tiberius. Victorious in Gaul and Germany. Unflinchingly firm and severe
towards all who resisted him, but generous to those who trusted and
submitted to him. He married Antonia, the daughter of Marc Antony. His
known desire to see the commonwealth restored endeared him to the Roman
people. Died in Germany, from an injury sustained in a fall from his
horse.

of him, No. 222, Roman Court.]
