Nam postquam Cn. Pompeio et M. Crasso consulibus tribunicia potestas restituta est, homines adulescentes summam potestatem nacti, quibus aetas animusque ferox erat, coepere senatum criminando plebem exagitare, dein largiundo atque pollicitando magis incendere, ita ipsi clari potentesque fieri.
For after the tribunician power had been restored in the consulship of Gnaeus Pompey and Marcus Crassus, young men, whose age and disposition made them aggressive, attained that very great power and thereupon began to stir up the commons by criticizing the senate and then to inflame their passions still more by doles and promises, thus making themselves conspicuous and influential.
