[34]
You were quaestors to Cnaeus Papirius the
consul fourteen years ago. All that you have done from that day to this day I bring
before the court. Not one hour will be found free from theft, from wickedness, from
cruelty, from atrocity. These years have been passed by you in the quaestorship, and
in the lieutenancy in Asia, and in the city
praetorship, and in the Sicilian praetorship. On which account a division of my
whole action will also be made into four parts.
