[356]
On the same day it was that the sons and brethren of Izates the king,
together with many others of the eminent men of the populace, got together
there, and besought Caesar to give them his right hand for their security;
upon which, though he was very angry at all that were now remaining, yet
did he not lay aside his old moderation, but received these men. At that
time, indeed, he kept them all in custody, but still bound the king's sons
and kinsmen, and led them with him to Rome, in order to make them hostages
for their country's fidelity to the Romans.
