Excerpt from L'Incendio di Roma dell'Anno 64
Stazio fu d'animo mite e troppo remissivo, ma onesto; visse tutto nell'ambiente cortigiano dei Flavī, intimo di liberti potenti in Corte, ed in specie di Claudio Etrusco, un liberto di Tiberio che divenne capo dei ņem' imperiali sotto Vespasiano: si ritirņ nel 94 a Napoli e vi mori un paio d'anni dopo. Al momento dell' Incendio aveva circa zo anni.
