During the Latin festival when the consuls had to ascend the Alban Mount to perform the customary sacrifices,the priests succeeding to the jurisdiction of the consuls,Octavius sat on the Tribunal.There came many people on legal business and many on no business at all except for a sight of the boy;for he was well worth beholding,especially when he assumed the dignity and honorable aspect of office.Caesar had by this time completed the wars in Europe, had conquered Pompey, had taken Egypt, had returned from Syria,and was intending to advance in to Libya in order to put down what was left of war over there;and Octavius wanted to take the field with him in order that he night gain experience in the practice of war.
