[89] an consules in praetore coercendo fortes fuissent? primum Milone occiso habuisset suos consules; deinde quis in¹ eo praetore consul fortis esset² per quem tribunum virtutem consularem crudelissime vexatam esse meminisset? oppressisset³ omnia, possideret, teneret; lege nova, quae est inventa apud eum cum reliquis legibus Clodianis⁴, servos nostros libertos suos effecisset⁵; postremo, nisi eum di immortales in eam mentem impulissent ut homo effeminatus fortissimum virum conaretur occidere, hodie rem publicam nullam haberetis.
