De Vita Caesarum

C. Suetonius Tranquillus

Princeps neque opera ulla magnifica fecit--nam et quae sola susceperat, Augusti templum restitutionemque Pompeiani theatri, imperfecta post tot annos reliquit--...

While emperor he constructed no magnificent public works, for the only ones which he undertook, the temple of Augustus and the restoration of Pompey's theatre, he left unfinished after so many years.
