[28]
hic tibi in mentem non venit iubere ut
haec1 quoque referret HS Vl milibus D se tibi vendidisse?
metuisti ne aes alienum tibi cresceret, si HS VI milibus D
tibi constarent ea quae tu facile posses2 vendere HS ducentis
milibus? fuit tanti, mihi crede; haberes quod defenderes;
nemo quaereret quanti illa res esset; si modo te posses
dicere3 emisse, facile cui velles tuam causam et factum probares;
nunc de peripetasmatis quem ad modum te expedias
non habes.
