Postquam, ut dixi, senatus in Catonis sententiam discessit, consul optumum factu ratus noctem quae instabat antecapere, ne quid eo spatio novaretur, triumviros quae [ad] supplicium postulabat parare iubet.
But, as I stated, after the senate had adopted the recommendation of Cato, the consul, thinking it best to take action in advance of the approaching nightfall so that no new disturbance might occur after dark, ordered the triumvirs to make the preparations demanded by the execution.
