Pompeius, longe diversa aliis suadentibus, quorum plerique hortabantur, ut in Italiam transmitteret (neque hercules quidquam partibus illis salubrius fuit), alii, ut bellum traheret, quod dignatione partium in dies ipsis magis prosperum fieret, usus impetu suo hostem secutus est.
Pompey, in spite of the contrary advice of others, followed his own impulse and set out after the enemy. Most of his advisers urged him to cross into Italy'nor indeed was there any course more expedient for his party'others advised him to prolong the war, which, by reason of the esteem in which the party was held, was daily becoming more favourable to them.
