Liber de Prodigiis
Iulius Obsequens
Vasto incendio Romae cum regia quoque ureretur, sacrarium et ex duabus altera laurus ex mediis ignibus inviolatae steterunt.
In a huge fire at Rome, the Regia also was burned, but the sanctuary and one of a pair of laurel trees came out of the midst of the fire unscathed.
