Octavian

There followed a period of disagreement and bloody conflict between Octavian and Mark Antony.

Octavian was a man of great ambition and had overcome the violence and perfidy of others by often using their own methods.

Octavian is Emperor of Rome, and here again the happy conclusion finds place in that city.

To his influence especially was attributed the humaner policy of Octavian after his first alliance with Antony and Lepidus.

Octavian Methodism was spared extravagances of this sort, it is true, but it paid a price for the immunity.
