Then in this same tribuneship, when Caesar while on hi way into Spain had given him Italy to trample on, what journeys did he make
in every direction! how did he visit the municipal towns! I know that I am only
speaking of matters which have been discussed in every one's conversation, and
that the things which I am saying and am going to say are better known to every
one who was in Italy at that time, than
to me, who was not. Still I mention the particulars of his conduct, although my
speech can not possibly come up to your own personal knowledge. When was such
wickedness ever heard of as existing upon earth? or shamelessness? or such open
infamy?
