servant dyed the first winter. Only his dougter Priscilla survived, and

whether there were any canvassing for offices there. To this Cæsar
replied: “For my part, I would rather be the first among these fellows
than the second man in Rome.” The account is given in Plutarch’s _Life
of Caesar_.

occupied that part of the Netherlands known as Flanders.
