In the year 1032 from the founding of the City, Tacitus, the thirtieth, obtained the imperial power and was killed in Pontus in the sixth month. After him Florianus, sharing a like lot in his reign, was killed at Tarsus in only the third month.
1 Anno ab urbe condita MXXXII Tacitus tricesimus adeptus imperium sexto mense occisus in Ponto est. post quem Florianus parem regni sortem ferens, tertio demum mense apud Tarsum interfectus est.
In the year 1033 from the founding of the City, Probus, the thirty-first, obtained the throne and held it for six years and four months. The Gallic provinces, long since occupied by the barbarians, he at last set entirely free through many heavy battles, the enemy having been destroyed.
2 Anno ab urbe condita MXXXIII Probus tricesimus primus regnum sortitus obtinuit annis sex et mensibus quattuor. Gallias iam dudum a barbaris occupatas per multa et grauia proelia deletis tandem hostibus ad perfectum liberauit.
He then waged two civil wars, with a great deal of bloodshed: one in the east, in which he crushed and captured Saturninus, who had set himself up in tyranny; the other, in which he defeated Proculus and Bonosus in great battles at Cologne and put them to death. He himself, however, was killed at Sirmium, in an iron-clad tower, in a mutiny of the soldiers.
3 bella deinde ciuilia equidem plurimo sanguine duo gessit: unum in oriente, quo Saturninum tyrannide subnixum oppressit et cepit, aliud, quo Proculum et Bonosum apud Agrippinam magnis proeliis superatos interfecit. ipse autem apud Sirmium in turre ferrata militari tumultu interfectus est.
In the year 1039 from the founding of the City, Carus of Narbonne, the thirty-second, took up the imperial power and held it for two years. He had made his sons Carinus and Numerian partners in his rule; and in the Parthian war, after he had taken the two most famous cities of the Parthians, Coche and Ctesiphon, he was struck by lightning in his camp above the Tigris and died. Numerian, who had been with his father, was killed on his way back through the treachery of Aper, his father-in-law.
4 Anno ab urbe condita MXXXVIIII Carus Narbonensis tricesimus secundus suscepit imperium ac biennio tenuit. qui cum filios suos Carinum et Numerianum consortes regni effecisset, bello Parthico postquam duas nobilissimas Parthorum urbes Cochem et Ctesiphontem cepit, super Tigridem in castris fulmine ictus interiit. Numerianus, qui cum patre fuerat, rediens fraude Apri soceri sui interfectus est.
