Cur autem ea legatis nostris dabat, cum ad nos Cotylam mitteret, ornamentum atque arcem amicorum suorum, hominem aedilicium, si vero tum fuit aedilis cum eum iussu Antoni in convivio servi publici loris ceciderunt?
And why was he giving them to our envoys when he was sending us Cotyla, an ornament and strong refuge of his friends, an ex-aedile'if indeed he was an aedile on that occasion when public slaves beat him with leather straps at a dinner party on Antonius orders?
