[21]
What are we to say? Who was praetor when
this inheritance came to the son of Dio? The same man who was so when hers came to
Annia the daughter of Publius Annius the senator,—the same who was so when
his was left to Marcus Ligur the senator, namely Caius Sacerdos. What are we to say?
Had no one been troublesome to Dio on the subject at the time?, No more than they
had to Ligur, while Sacerdos was praetor. What then? :Did any one make any complaint
to Verres? Nobody, unless perhaps you suppose that the informers were ready for him
at the strait.
