cumque ex litteris Q. Caepionis Bruti pro consule intellectum sit, Q. Hortensi pro consule opera et virtute vehementer rem publicam adiutam omniaque eius consilia cum consiliis Q. Caepionis Bruti pro consule coniuncta fuisse, eamque rem magno usui rei publicae fuisse, Q. Hortensium pro consule recte et ordine exque re publica fecisse, senatuique placere Q. Hortensium pro consule cum quaestore prove quaestore et legatis suis provinciam Macedoniam obtinere quoad ei ex senatus consulto successum sit.
And whereas it has been perceived from the letter of the proconsul Quintus Caepio Brutus that through the agency and courage of the proconsul Quintus Hortensius the Republic has been powerfully assisted and that all his counsels have been conjoined with the counsels of the proconsul Quintus Caepio Brutus and as a consequence of this the Republic has derived great benefit: that the proconsul Quintus Hortensius has acted rightly and properly and in the public interest; and that it please the senate that Quintus Hortensius, proconsul, with his quaestor or proquaestor and legates, hold the province of Macedonia until a successor is appointed by decree of the senate.
