Fautores legatorum, praeterea senatus magna pars gratia depravata Adherbalis dicta contemnere, Iugurthae virtutem extollere laudibus; gratia, voce, denique omnibus modis pro alieno scelere et flagitio, sua quasi pro gloria, nitebantur.
The partisans of the envoys, in addition to a large number of other senators who had been corrupted by their influence, scorned Adherbals words, heaped praise on Jugurthas prowess; by means of their influence, their eloquence, in short in every possible way, they strove in defense of the shameful crime of a foreigner as though for the sake of glory.
