TAILIEUCHUNG - Aurelian or, Rome in the Third Century

The record which follows, is by the hand of me, NICOMACHUS, once the happy servant of the great Queen of Palmyra, than whom the world never saw a queen more illustrious, or a woman adorned with brighter virtues. But my design is not to write her eulogy, or to recite the wonderful story of her life. That task requires a stronger and a more impartial hand than mine. The life of Zenobia by Nicomachus, would be the portrait of a mother and a divinity, drawn by the pen of a child and a worshipper. | Aurelian by William Ware 1 Aurelian by William Ware The Project Gutenberg EBook of Aurelian by William Ware This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.

This book--a sequel to Zenobia--published nearly ten years ago under the name of Probus was soon republished in several places abroad under that of Aurelian. So far from complaining of the innovation I could not but regard it as a piece of good fortune as I had myself long thought the present a more appropriate title than the one originally chosen. Add to this that the publisher of the work on lately proposing a new edition urgently advised the adoption of the foreign name and I have thought myself sufficiently warranted in an alteration which circumstances seemed almost to require or at least to excuse.
