		Civilis, thinking that he must proceed by craft, actually blamed the prefects for having deserted the forts, saying that he would himself, with the cohort under his command, quell the disturbance among the Canninefates, and that they had better return to their respective winter quarters.
		Claudius Labeo, prefect of the Batavian horse, who had been the rival of Civilis in some local contest, was sent away into the country of the Frisii; to kill him might be to give offence to his countrymen, while to keep him with the army might be to sow the seeds of discord.
		Civilis at first replied in artful language, but soon perceiving that Montanus was a man of singularly high spirit and was himself disposed for change, he began with lamenting the perils through which he had struggled for five-and-twenty years in the camps of Rome.

	Claudius Labeo
		Claudius Labeo's defection was the main cause of the Roman defeat, but Julius Civilis was not the type of man to be grateful.
		And so Julius Civilis was forced to split his forces and send units to the west, but they were unable to find Labeo, and started to loot the country of the Nervians, which did little to make them popular in Belgica.
		However, Julius Civilis was unable to organize the resistance, because he was "scouring the remote parts of Belgica in an effort to capture Claudius Labeo or dislodge him" (Tacitus, Histories 4.70).

		Civilis then stipulated for the plunder of the camp, and appointed guards who were to secure the treasure, the camp-followers, and the baggage, and accompany them as they departed, stripped of everything.
		Civilis was also influenced by recollections of kindness received; for his son, who at the beginning of the war had been arrested in the Colony, had been kept in honourable custody.
		Civilis and Classicus, having heard of the defeat of Tutor and of the rout of the Treveri, and indeed of the complete success of the enemy, hastened in their alarm to concentrate their own scattered forces, and meanwhile sent repeated messages to Valentinus, warning him not to risk a decisive battle.

		Civilis therefore utterly bent to rebel, yet meaning to smother for the present his main drift, and in the mean while to adjust all his measures by the course of events, began on this wise to introduce the public change intended.
		Claudius Labeo, Commander of the Batavian Squadron, as a man engaged against Civilis in domestic competition, was by him removed to the Country of Frisia; lest, had he slain him, he should have drawn upon himself national antipathy and hate, or, were he suffered at home, he might kindle intestine division and quarrels.
		Civilis the while had tampered with the besieged, and tried to win them to submit, by representing, that upon the Romans destruction was brought, and utter despair, and that over them his forces had gained the victory.

		Claudius Civilis was a Batavian leader who, in 69 AD, had staged a successful uprising against the Romans (successful in the sense that he and his Batavians weren't extinguished by the Romans: they surrendered alright, but under better terms than before their uprising).
		But you could hardly blame Rembrandt: one of the few details known about Claudius Civilis' looks was that he had lost an eye, so he painted him with just one eye.
		My second guess is that on that fateful day in 1662 when they forced Rembrandt to cut up his own painting, Amsterdam officialdom started on it's downward trajectory that would eventually lead to them refusing me to build an annex on my roof terrace slightly larger than the maximum 6 square meters in size.

		This Julius was the leader of the Batavian Revolt which took place in 69 CE in the area now known as the border between Germany and the Netherlands, near Nijmegen.
