Since, then, this is the case, as to the letters and messages of Marcus Lepidus,
that most illustrious man, I agree with Servilius. And I further give my vote,
that Magnus Pompeius, the son of Cnaeus, has acted as might have been expected
from the affection and zeal of his father and forefathers toward the republic,
and from his own previous virtue and industry and loyal principles in promising
to the senate and people of Rome his
own assistance, and that of those men whom he has with him; and that that
conduct of his is grateful and acceptable to the senate and people of Rome, and that it shall tend to his own honor
and dignity. This may either be added to the resolution of the senate which is
before us, or it may be separated from it and drawn up by itself, so as to let
Pompeius be seen to be extolled in a distinct resolution of the senate.
