inimicorum conspiratione urbe pulsus M. Cicero, cum in villa quadam campi Atinatis deversaretur, animo in somnum profuso per loca deserta et invias regiones vaganti sibi C.Marium consulatus ornatum insignibus putavit obvium factum, interrogantem eum quid ita tam tristi vultu incerto itinere ferretur.
Driven out of Rome by a gang of his enemies, M. Cicero was lodging for the night at a farm in the plain of Atina. There relaxed in sleep he thought he was wandering in a desert place, pathless regions, when C. Marius, wearing the insignia of the Consulship, met him and asked him why he was travelling uncertain of his route with so sad a countenance.
