Sors quaesturae provinciam Asiam, proconsulem Salvium Titianum dedit: quorum neutro corruptus est; quanquam et provincia dives ac parata peccantibus, et proconsul in omnem aviditatem pronus, quantalibet facilitate redempturus esset mutuam dissimulationem mali. Auctus est ibi filia, in subsidium simul et solatium: nam filium ante sublatum brevi amisit.

For the office of Proconsul, &c., see note, His. 1, 49. Parata peccantibus. Ready for wicked rulers, i.e. affording great facilities for extortion in its corrupt and servile population.
