eine ergo populus consulatum negare potuit cui mox duas clarissimas provincias aut daturus erat aut debiturus, Achaiam ac Macedoniam? et quidem hoc facto meliore eo cive usus est: intellexit enim quam industrie sibi gerendus esset consulatus quem tanto labore impetrari senserat.
Could the people deny the Consulship to one to whom they were soon about either to give or to owe two splendid provinces, Achaea and Macedonia? And indeed by that action they made him a better citizen for their service; for he realised what diligence he had to show in his conduct of the Consulship, which he had found it so much trouble to procure.
