utque de matronalium partium nil querar fraude, quas cum expeditis tulistis impedimentis, tuque fraterque communis Volusianus vix singulorum clientum puerorumque comitatu ambiebamini; per quod sollicitudinem prosequentum vana mox recurrendi spe fefellistis; certe frater Volusianus, qui forte pergens in praedia Baiocassina totamque provinciam Lugdunensem secundam pervagaturus, expectationem nostram specie brevioris itineris elusit.
I refrain from complaining about the trickery of the ladies whom you carried off with only the slightest modicum of luggage, but you and Volusianus, whom we both own as a brother, had scarcely one client and one servant to escort you, and thus you beguiled the disquietude of those who saw you off by holding out the vain hope that you would hurry back to them. Certainly our brother Volusianus did so, for he cheated our hope and expectation with the pretence of a shorter trip when really proceeding to his property at Baiocassium and therefore likely to traverse the whole province of Lugdunensis Secunda.
