Servius Sulpicius and M.Tullius were consuls the next year: nothing worth mentioning happened.

Then T.AEbutius and C.Vetusius.In their consulship, Fidenae was besieged, Crustumeria taken, and Praeneste revolted from the Latins to the Romans.

Nor was the Latin war, which had been fomenting for several years, any longer deferred.

A.Postumius dictator, and T.AEbutius his master of the horse, marching with a numerous army of horse and foot, met the enemy's forces at the lake Regillus, in the territory of Tusculum, and, because it was heard that the Tarquins were in the army of the Latins, their rage could not be restrained, but they must immediately come to an engagement.

Accordingly the battle was more obstinate and fierce than usual.
