" Perceiving his superior abilities and his influence with the Romans, he hoped, by making him a participator in the king- dom, to prevent him from seizing the whole after ROMULUS TO CLESAR AUGUSTUS 49 his death. But his precautions were unavailing, and the princes were unable to administer its affairs without dissension, according to the saying of Sadi : " Ten dervishes can sleep under one blanket, but two kings cannot be accommodated in one country. " Within a very short time Jugurtha, having... beheaded one of his rivals, and expelled the other whose name was Adherbal, made himself king of all Numidia.
Adherbal then appealed for assistance to the senate, which was at first inclined to grant his request. But before it had come to a decision, Jugurtha, who was more intimately acquainted with the character of the Romans, sent am- bassadors to the city with large sums of money to bestow upon his old friends, and all others who happened to be then possessed of influence. After these gifts had been judiciously distributed, " so complete a change followed, " says Sallust, " that Jugurtha, from being an object of the greatest odium, came to be regarded with extreme favour by the nobility.
