30. dum haec in Hispania geruntur, Petelia in Bruttiis aliquot post mensibus, quam coepta oppugnari erat, ab Himilcone praefecto Hannibalis expugnata est. [2] multo sanguine ac volneribus ea Poenis victoria stetit, nec ulla magis vis obsessos quam fames expugnavit. [3] absumptis enim frugum alimentis carnisque omnis generis quadrupedum suetae insuetaeque, postremo coriis herbisque et radicibus et corticibus teneris strictisque foliis vixere, [4] nec ante, quam vires ad standum in muris ferendaque arma deerant, expugnati sunt. [5] recepta Petelia Poenus ad Consentiam copias traducit, quam minus pertinaciter defensam intra paucos dies in deditionem accepit. [6] isdem ferme diebus et Bruttiorum exercitus Crotonem, Graecam urbem, circumsedit, opulentam quondam armis virisque, tum iam adeo multis magnisque cladibus adflictam, ut omnis aetatis minus duo milia civium superessent. [7] itaque urbe a defensoribus vacua facile potiti hostes sunt; arx tantum retenta, in quam inter tumultum captae urbis e media caede quidam effugere. [8] et Locrenses descivere ad Bruttios Poenosque prodita multitudine a principibus. [9] Regini tantummodo regionis eius et in fide erga Romanos et potestatis suae ad ultimum manserunt. [10] in Siciliam quoque eadem inclinatio animorum [p. 159] pervenit, et ne domus quidem Hieronis tota ab defectione abstinuit. [11] namque Gelo, maximus stirpis, contempta simul senectute patris simul post Cannensem cladem Romana societate ad Poenos defecit, [12] movissetque in Sicilia res, nisi mors adeo opportuna, ut patrem quoque suspicione aspergeret, armantem eum multitudinem sollicitantemque socios absumpsisset. [13] haec eo anno in Italia, in Africa, in Sicilia, in Hispania vario eventu acta.

exitu anni Q. Fabius Maximus a senatu postulavit, ut aedem Veneris Erycinae, quam dictator vovisset, dedicare liceret. [14] senatus decrevit, ut Ti. Sempronius consul designatus, cum magistratum inisset, ad populum ferret, ut Q. Fabium duumvirum esse iuberent aedis dedicandae causa. [15] et M. Aemilio Lepido, qui consul augurque fuerat, filii tres, Lucius, Marcus, Quintus, ludos funebres per triduum et gladiatorum paria duo et viginti in foro dederunt. [16] aediles curules C. Laetorius et Ti. Sempronius Gracchus, consul designatus, qui in aedilitate magister equitum fuerat, ludos Romanos fecerunt, qui per triduum instaurati sunt. [17] plebei ludi aedilium M. Aureli Cottae et M. Claudi Marcelli ter instaurati.

circumacto tertio anno Punici belli Ti. Sempronius consul idibus Martiis magistratum init. [18] praetores Q. Fulvius Flaccus, qui antea bis consul censorque fuerat, urbanam, M. Valerius Laevinus peregrinam sortem in iuris dictione habuit; Ap. Claudius Pulcher Siciliam, Q. Mucius Scaevola Sardiniam sortiti sunt. M. Marcello pro consule imperium esse populus iussit, [19] quod post Cannensem cladem unus Romanorum imperatorum in Italia prospere rem gessisset.
