[108]
Come now let us consider the action of the Roscii by the judgment of
Chrysogonus himself. If in that contest the Roscii had done nothing which was worth
speaking of, on what account were they presented with such rewards by Chrysogonus? If
they did nothing more than inform him of the fact, was it not enough for him to thank
them? Why are these farms of such value immediately given to Capito? Why does that fellow Roscius possess all the
rest in common property with Chrysogonus? Is it not evident, O judges, that Chrysogonus,
understanding the whole business, gave them as spoils to the Roscii?
