[26]
The consul states, in full senate, on the calends
of January, that if the present condition of the republic continues, and if no new event
arises, on account of which he cannot with honour avoid it, he will not go to any province.
By that means I shall be able, O conscript fathers, so to behave myself in this magistracy,
as to be able to restrain any tribune of the people who is hostile to the
republic,—to despise any one who is hostile to myself.
