... quarum quattuor integrae manebant, tres solo tenus deiectae, septem...


tres solo tonus deiectae : these were probably the districts including the Palatine, the Circus, and the Subura. It seems that many temples and large buildings escaped, or were capable of speedy restoration, even in districts where the private houses were totally destroyed. The Circus itself was used in the following year, and the ' aedes Cereris ' near it is spoken of at the same date, ch. 53, 1 and 4. On the Palatine the temple of Apollo, where the Sibylline books were kept (ch. 44, 1), and the library seem to have been preserved. Furneaux's note.
