very camp, and names Doncaster as its site.* The after 
campaigns of Claudius' generals and their successors are still 
amongst the Brigantes. Ostorius (see Tacitus, b. xii., 33 c.) 
on his arrival marches against the Silures. He had advanced 
nearly as far as the Irish Sea, when a sedition amongst the 
Brigantes compels him to return, "as he wished to make no 
new conquests until he had secured the old." He comes 
back, quiets the Brigantes, by making an example of some 
and pardoning the others, and establishes a colony at Camu- 
lodunum. He then re-enters on his campaign, defeats 
Caractacus, takes his wife and daughter prisoners, and 
Caractacus himself is delivered up to the Romans by 
Cartismandua, whose protection he had sought ; he is taken 
to Rome ; graces a triumph ; quiet, cool, and self-possessed as 
a North-countryman of the present day would be, he makes 
his well-known speech ; he is pardoned by Claudius and 
restored to his countiy. 
" Ostorius syne did till him restoire, 
Brigantia quilk was his before." 
He lived a firm friend to the Romans, and died at York. 
Aulus Didius comes next. Didius sends word to Kin g 
Corbreid to leave Brigantia (Hector Boece, vol. i., 273).

Brigantia should be the Eoman's land, 
Quilk Caesar gaif to Caratac his brother." 
Then— 
" Ane Eoman, callit Cecius Nausica, 
With great power came into Brigantia." 
Aulus Didius was at Camelidone when King Corbreid 
proposes a conference, with ten on each side, at a famous 
stone. 
" Neir hy the bounds of Brigantia thair stude 
Ane end fast stane."
