A history of Rome for junior classes : with a map of Italy and ample chronological table . ch awe, thatthey sought for peace, which they obtained on conditionthat they should withdraw beyond the Danube, after this, Marcus Aiuelius had to quell an in-surrection in the East, headed by A^ddius Cassius, whohad been instigated by the emperors own wife, Faustina,a daughter of Antoninus Pius.
