Commentary

Commentary on Defense of Milo (Select Orations of Cicero (Allen and Greenough's Edition). Greenough, James Bradstreet; Kittredge, George Lyman, editors. Boston, London: Ginn & Company, 1897.) focus

in praetura : at the time of his death Clodius was candidate for this office (see Introd. to the oration). 181.12

non multos mensis : really less than six. At whatever time the magistrates were elected, they could hold office only for the year for which they were chosen. In this case, since the election was delayed till long after the beginning of the year, the term of office was very considerably shortened. 181.13

honoris gradum : the ambition of a Roman was to complete the series of curule offices ( cursus honorum) as speedily as possible. 181.16

annum suum , the regular year in which he could legally be a candidate. 181.17

religione aliqun , from some religious scruple, as it is generally (Ut fit ).
