[21] Tuberonis¹ sors coniecta est ex senatus consulto, cum ipse non adesset, morbo etiam impediretur: statuerat excusari². haec ego novi propter omnis necessitudines quae mihi sunt cum L. Tuberone: domi³ una eruditi, militiae contubernales, post adfines, in omni⁴ vita familiares; magnum etiam vinculum quod isdem studiis semper usi sumus. scio⁵ Tuberonem domi manere voluisse: sed ita quidam agebant, ita rei publicae sanctissimum nomen opponebant⁶ ut, etiam si aliter sentiret, virorum⁷ tamen ipsorum pondus sustinere non posset.
