When the war had been brought to an end,1 Cinna and Marius were filled with insolence and all bitterness, and made the evils of war appear as gold to the Romans; Sertorius alone, as we are told, neither killed any one to gratify his anger, nor waxed insolent with victory, but actually rebuked Marius, and by private interviews and entreaties made Cinna more moderate.
1 That is, when the party of Sulla and the senate ceased to resist and Rome had surrendered.
