Age, quam graviter senatus tulit quod Q. Petillium consulem fortissime adversus Ligures pugnantem occidere milites passi essent! legioni neque stipendium anni procedere neque aera dari voluit, quia pro salute imperatoris hostium se telis non obtulerant, .

It ordained that the legions annual pay be stopped and no other pay be given them because they had not exposed themselves to the enemys weapons to save their commanders life.
