22. secutus est annus nulla re belli domive1 insignis, P. Plautio Proculo P. Cornelio Scapula consulibus, [2?] praeterquam quod Fregellas-Signinorum is ager, deinde Volscorum fuerat—colonia deducta et populo visceratio data a M. Flavio in funere matris. [3] erant qui per speciem honorandae parentis meritam mercedem populo solutam interpretarentur, quod eum die dicta ab aedilibus crimine stupratae matris familiae absolvisset. [4] data visceratio in praeteritam iudicii gratiam honoris etiam ei causa fuit. tribunusque2 plebei proximis comitiis absens petentibus praefertur.

[5] Palaepolis fuit haud procul inde ubi nunc Neapolis sita est; duabus urbibus populus idem habitabat.3 [6] cumis erant oriundi; Cumani Chalcide Euboica [p. 86] originem trahunt. classe, qua advecti ab domo4 fuerant, multum in ora maris eius quod accolunt potuere, primo in insulas5 Aenariam et Pithecusas6 egressi, deinde in continentem ausi sedes transferre. [7] haec civitas cum suis viribus tum Samnitium infidae adversus Romanos societati freta, sive pestilentiae quae Romanam urbem adorta nuntiabatur fidens, multa hostilia adversus Romanos agrum Campanum Falernumque incolentes fecit. [8] igitur L. Cornelio Lentulo Q. Publilio Philone iterum consulibus, fetialibus Palaepolim ad res repetendas missis, cum relatum esset a Graecis, gente lingua magis strenua quam factis, ferox responsum, ex auctoritate patrum populus Palaepolitanis bellum fieri iussit. [9] inter consules provinciis comparatis bello Graeci persequendi Publilio evenerunt; Cornelius altero exercitu Samnitibus, si qua se moverent, [10?] oppositus—fama autem erat defectioni Campanorum imminentes admoturos castra—ibi optimum visum Cornelio stativa habere.
