Note 068
After the description of the Capitol, he adds,

statuae erant quot sunt mundi provinciae; et habebat quaelibet tintinnabulum ad collum. Et erant ita per magicam artem dispositae, ut quando aliqua regio Romano Imperio rebellis erat, statim imago illius provinciae vertebat se contra illam; unde tintinnabulum resonabat quod pendebat ad collum; tuncque vates Capitolii qui erant custodes senatui, &c.

He mentions an example of the Saxons and Suevi, who, after they had been subdued by Agrippa, again rebelled:

tintinnabulum sonuit; sacerdos qui erat in speculo in hebdomada senatoribus nuntiavit:

Agrippa marched back and reduced the __ Persians (Anonym. in Montfaucon, p. 297, 298.)
