Mamercus Scaurus was then for the second time impeached, a man of distinguished rank and ability as an advocate, but of infamous life. He fell, not through the friendship of Sejanus, but through what was no less powerful to destroy, the enmity of Macro, who practised the same arts more secretly. Macro's information was grounded on the subject of a tragedy written by Scaurus, from which he cited some verses which might be twisted into allusions to Tiberius. But Servilius

Bulgakov's Master and Margarita, like several of his other works, was never published in his lifetime. The novel was published by Bulgakov's widow, Elena Sergeevna, in Nov. 1966 and Jan. 1967 in the journal Moskva. This first published edition was substantially cut (roughly 12% of the text), in part for considerations of space, but mostly to accommodate Soviet censors. References to the actions of the secret police in Jerusalem and Moscow were the most likely targets for deletion.
