Annō post Chrīstum nātum prīmō et sexāgēsimō Britannī rebellāvērunt. Suētōnius Paulīnus, ūnus ex ducibus Nerōnis, quīntī prīncipis Rōmānōrum, Britanniae tum praeerat. Ille in Monam īnsulam penetrāvit, ubi magnum numerum Druidārum trucīdāvit, et fāna eōrum vastāvit. Sed dum ille in Cambriā abest, Icēnī cum Cassīs et Trinobantibus aliīsque gentibus Britannicīs sē contrā Rōmānōs cōnsociant. Nōn mīrum est sī Britannī colōniam illam Camulodūnum, ubi veterānī illī Rōmānī collocātī erant, nōn amābant. Nam veterānī eōs omnibus iniūriīs vexābant. Uxōrēs līberōsque eōrum in servitūtem dēportābant. Virōs ipsōs ignāvōs et servōs vocābant. Oppidum iam viīs et aedificiīs Rōmānīs ōrnāvērunt, sed mūrīs nōn firmāverant. Inter illa aedificia templum "Dīvī Claudiī" erat; nam prīncipem mortuum Rōmānī prō deō adōrābant. Et in illō templō simulācrum Victōriae collocātum erat.
