[524] Bructeri, Tencteri, &c. (cp. iv. 23). [525] Cp. ii. 11. [526] Cp. iii. 44. [527] They had been newly enrolled (see iv. 68). [528] i.e. the Roman army of occupation which had joined the Gauls and come over again. [529] Vetera. [530] See note 522. [531] Chap. 14. [532] Stationed in the Rhine (see chap. 21). [533] Cp. iv. 68. [534] Cp. iv. 79. [535] ? Cleves. [536] This mole, begun by Drusus in A.D. 9, was built out from the left bank of the Rhine near Cleves. It turned most of the water into the Lek, thus making the island easily accessible from the Roman side and barring access from the north. Civilis now reversed this position. His friends were now on the north. The swollen Waal would be an obstacle to the Romans. [537] i.e. the Waal. [538] See iii. 35. [539] These places cannot be certainly identified. They must have lain on the south of the Waal, probably east and west of Nymwegen. [540] Across the now swollen Waal. [541] See iv. 70. [542] Which he had found on his way. [543] Marching along the bank. [544] Pitched on the left bank somewhere between Novaesium and Vetera. The German assailants were probably Tencteri. [545] Dividing the different portions of the camp. [546] Cp. iv. 61. [547] Cp. ii. 16. [548] See chap. 22 and iv. 16 and 79. But the ships captured by Civilis were not small craft. Perhaps _luntres_ is here repeated from the preceding sentence by mistake for _naves_ or _puppes_. [549] The de Noord channel carries the combined waters of the Maas and the Waal into the Lek a few miles above Rotterdam. From the point of this confluence to the sea the Lek takes the name of Maas. [550] Into the country of the Frisii up toward the Zuyder Zee. [551] To make his party suspect that he was in league with the Romans. [552] Cp. iv. 65. [553] i.e. by betraying Civilis to them. [554] Tacitus remarks in the _Germania_ (chap. 29) that the Batavi do not suffer the indignity of paying tribute, but, 'like armour and weapons are reserved for use in war.' [555] Cp. iv. 13. [556] Perhaps the Neue Yssel, near Arnhem. [557] Cp. iv. 13, 32. INDEX OF NAMES [The references are to the chapters of the Latin text as given in the margin.
