Permission was given to the consuls to enlist as many troops as were necessary to complete the numbers.

This year the Roman empire was defended by twenty-one legions.

Publius Licinius Varus, the city praetor, was also commissioned to repair the thirty old men of war which lay at Ostia, and to man twenty new ones with full complements, in order that he might defend the sea-coast in the neighbourhood hood of Rome with a fleet of fifty ships.

Caius Calpurnius was ordered not to move his army from Arretium till his successor had arrived.
