136. See the pictures of Adolphus and Placidia, and the
account of their marriage, in Jornandes, de Reb. Geticis, c.
31, p. 654, 655 [p. 88, ed. Lugd. B.] With regard to the
place where the nuptials were stipulated, or consummated, or
celebrated, the MSS. of Jornandes vary between two
neighbouring cities Forli and Imola (Forum Livii and Forum
Cornelii). It is fair and easy to reconcile the Gothic
historian with Olympiodorus (see Mascou, 1. viii. c. 36):
but Tillemont grows peevish, and swears that it is not worth
while to try to conciliate Jornandes with any good authors.
