<p> [[A]] Roman of the Romans; was twice over Consul, in 267 and 256 [[B.C.;]] defeated the Carthaginians, both by sea and land, but was at last taken prisoner; being sent, after five years' captivity, on parole to Rome with proposals of peace, dissuaded the [[Senate]] from accepting the terms, and despite the entreaties of his wife and children and friends returned to [[Carthage]] according to his promise, where he was subjected to the most excruciating tortures. </p> | |||
