ut Agrippa vita concessit , Lucium Caesarem euntem ad Hispaniensis exercitus , Gaium remeantem Armenia et vulnere invalidum mors fato propera vel novercae Liviae dolus abstulit , Drusoque pridem extincto Nero solus e privignis erat , illuc cuncta vergere : filius , collega imperii , consors tribuniciae potestatis adsumitur omnisque per exercitus ostentatur , non obscuris , ut antea , matris artibus , sed palam hortatu .
When
Agrippa
died
,
and
Lucius
Cæsar
as
he
was
on
his
way
to
our
armies
in
Spain
,
and
Caius
while
returning
from
Armenia
,
still
suffering
from
a
wound
,
were
prematurely
cut
off
by
destiny
,
or
by
their
step-mother
Livia
'
s
treachery
,
Drusus
too
having
long
been
dead
,
Nero
remained
alone
of
the
stepsons
,
and
in
him
everything
tended
to
centre
.
He
was
adopted
as
a
son
,
as
a
colleague
in
empire
and
a
partner
in
the
tribunitian
power
,
and
paraded
through
all
the
armies
,
no
longer
through
his
mother
'
s
secret
intrigues
,
but
at
her
open
suggestion
.
