In Milonianam

Quintus Asconius Pedianus

...eisque hortantibus vulgus imperitum corpus nudum ac lutatum, sicut in lecto erat positum, ut vulnera videri possent in forum detulit et in Rostris posuit.

at their urging the ignorant crowd brought the corpse into the Forum, naked and muddy as it was, just as it had been placed on the couch, so that the wounds could be seen, and they put it on the Rostra.
