Note 054 Procop. de Bell. Vandal. 1. i. c. 7, p. 194 [tom. i. p. 342, ed. Bonn]. The testimony of Idatius is fair and impartial: "Majorianum de Galliis Romam redeuntem, et Romano imperio vel nomini res necessarias ordinantem, Richimer livore percitus, et invidorum consilio fultus, fraude interficit circumventum" [Sirmondi Op. tom. ii. p. 311]. Some read Suevorum, and I am unwilling to efface either of the words, as they express the different accomplices who united in the conspiracy against Majorian.
