^{page 208 note 2} Signor Ferrero indeed holds that Caesar then thought that the Helvetii intended to conquer Gaul, and only found out his mistake just before he returned to Italy for reinforcements.

^{page 211 note 3} I freely admit that one of the motives that induced Casticus to listen to the arguments of Orgetorix may have been the desire to expel Ariovistus; for Casticus was a Sequanian, and the Sequani were oppressed by Ariovistus.
