Idem Africae obsequium, initio Carthagine orto neque expectata Vipstani Aproniani proconsulis auctoritate; Crescens Neronis libertus (nam et hi malis temporibus partem se rei publicae faciunt) epulum plebi ob laetitiam recentis imperii obtulerat, et populus pleraque sine modo festinavit.
Africa showed the same ready obedience, led by Carthage, without waiting for the authority of Vipstanius Apronianus, the proconsul; Crescens, one of Neros freedmen'for in evil times even freedmen take part in the government'had given the commonfolk a feast in honour of the recent accession; and the people hurried on with extravagant zeal the usual demonstrations.
