O praeclare coniectum a1 vulgo in illam
provinciam omen communis famae atque sermonis, cum
ex nomine istius quid iste2 in provincia facturus esset
perridicule3 homines augurabantur! etenim quis dubitare
posset, cum istius in quaestura fugam et furtum recognosceret,
cum in legatione oppidorum fanorumque spoliationes
cogitaret, cum videret in foro latrocinia praeturae, qualis
iste in quarto actu improbitatis futurus esset?atque ut
intellegatis eum Romae quaesisse non4 modo genera furandi,
sed etiam nomina certissima5, accipite argumentum quo
facilius de singulari eius impudentia existimare possitis.
