THE SIXTH ORATION OF M. T. CICERO AGAINST MARCUS ANTONIUS. CALLED ALSO THE SIXTH PHILIPPIC. ADDRESSED TO THE PEOPLE.
[68]

cross that most sacred threshold? and to show your most profligate countenance
to the household gods who protect that abode? A house which for a long time no

dwell so long in that house? one in which, stupid and ignorant as you are, still
you can see nothing which is not painful to you.
