DIO'S ROMAN HISTORY

Nero seizes the sovereignty (chapters 1, 2 ).

At the beginning he is accustomed to yield to the influence of his mother, whom Seneca and Burrus thrust aside from control of affairs (chapters 3 ).

Nero's exhibitions of wantonness and his extravagance : the death of Silanus (chapters 4, 5, 6 ).

Love for Acte : Britannicus slain : discord with Agrippina (chapters 7 , 8 ).

How Nero's mind began to give way (chapter 9 ).

About the faults and immoralities of the philosopher Seneca (chapter 10 ).

Sabina an object of love : Agrippina murdered (chapters 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 ).

Domitia put to death : festivities : Nero sings to the accompaniment of his lyre (chapters 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 ).
