THE SIXTH ORATION OF M. T. CICERO AGAINST MARCUS ANTONIUS. CALLED ALSO THE SIXTH PHILIPPIC. ADDRESSED TO THE PEOPLE.
[39]
But what that extra ordinary and
almost godlike man thought of me is known to those men who pursued him to
Paphos from the battle of
Pharsalia. No mention of me was ever made by him that was not the most honorable
that could be, that was not full of the most friendly regret for me; while he
confessed that I had had the most foresight, but that he had had more sanguine
hopes. And do you dare taunt me with the name of that man whose friend you admit
that I was, and whose assassin you confess yourself?
