ubi promulgatio trinum nundinum,
ubi poena1 recenti lege Iunia et Licinia? possuntne hae2
leges esse ratae3 sine interitu legum reliquarum? eccui
potestas in forum insinuandi4 fuit? quae porro illa tonitrua,
quae tempestas! ut, si auspicia M. Antonium non moverent,
sustinere5 tamen eum ac ferre posse tantam vim
tempestatis, imbris6, turbinum mirum videretur. quam
legem igitur se augur dicit tulisse non modo tonante Iove
sed prope caelesti clamore prohibente, hanc dubitabit contra
auspicia latam confiteri?
