Clemens and I saw a temple after we arrived in the city.
We hurried to the temple, which Augustus Caesar had built
near the shore. In front of Caesar’s temple was an altar. I
poured some wine onto the altar.
Barbillus, a rich man, lived near this city. Barbillus
used to do business often with my father. He had a
slendid house. Soon I arrived at Barbillus’ house. It was
easy for me to find the house, because Barbillus was a very
well known man.
