[19] num quae rogatio lata, num quae nova quaestio decreta est? atqui si res, si vir, si tempus ullum dignum fuit, certe haec in illa causa summa omnia fuerunt. insidiator erat in foro conlocatus atque in vestibulo ipso senatus; ei viro autem mors parabatur cuius in vita nitebatur salus civitatis; eo porro rei publicae tempore quo, si unus ille occidisset¹, non haec solum civitas sed gentes omnes concidissent. Nisi vero, quia perfecta res non est, non fuit punienda², proinde quasi exitus rerum, non hominum consilia legibus vindicentur. minus dolendum fuit re non perfecta, sed puniendum³ certe nihilo minus.
