Igitur interceptis Antei litteris, furatus etiam libellos, quibus dies genitalis eius et eventura secretis Pammenis occultabantur, simul repertis quae de ortu vitaque Ostorii Scapulae composita erant, scribit ad principem magna se et quae incolumitati eius conducerent adlaturum, si brevem exilii veniam inpetravisset: quippe Anteium et Ostorium inminere rebus et sua Caesarisque fata scrutari.
He therefore intercepted a letter from Anteius, stole in addition the papers, concealed in Pammenes archives, which contained his horoscope and career, and, lighting at the same time on the astrologers calculations with regard to the birth and life of Ostorius Scapula, wrote to the emperor that, could he be granted a short respite from his banishment, he would bring him grave news conducive to his safety: for Anteius and Ostorius had designs upon the empire, and were peering into their destinies and that of the prince.
