Titus, of the same Titus surname as his father, was the delight and darling of the human race ; such surpassing ability had he, by nature, art, or good fortune, to win the affections of all men, and that, too, which is no easy task, while he was emperor ; for as a private citizen, and even during his father’s rule, he did not escape hatred, much less public criticism. He was born on the third day before the Kalends of January, in the year memorable for the death — of Gaius, in a mean house near the Septizonium and in a very small dark room besides; for it still remains and is on exhibition.
The Greek stands ready in the workroom; the English is served. Both faces will read together.
