      the curule chair which the dictator Caesar was accustomed to use, and that he had married the
      widow of Cicero. But his boasting gave no offence, and he was raised by Tiberius to the
      consulship. His name, however, does not appear in the Fasti (<bibl n="D. C. 57.15">D. C.
       57.15</bibl>). The widow of Cicero has been usually supposed to be Terentia, but Drumann has
      remarked, with justice, that it was far more likely Publilia, the second wife of Cicero (<hi rend="ital">Geschichte Roms,</hi> vol. vi. p. 696). Vibius Rufus frequently appears as one of
      the declaimers in the <title>Controversiae</title> of the elder Seneca. (<hi rend="ital">Contr.</hi> 2, 4, 5, 7-9, et alibi.)</p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
