Idem barbarum quendam ob eximiam similitudinem Cappadociae regnum adfectantem, tamquam Ariarathes esset, quem a M. Antonio interemptum luce clarius erat, quamquam paene totius orientis civitatium et gentium credula suffragatione fultum, caput imperio dementer imminens iusto impendere supplicio coegit.
A certain barbarian pretended to the throne of Cappadocia because of an extraordinary likeness, posing as Ariarathes, who, as was clear as daylight, had been executed by Antony. Backed though he was by the credulous support of the communities and nations of almost the entire East, the same Caesar compelled him to devote his head that in folly threatened the empire to a just punishment.
