Cn. etiam Pompeium Iuppiter omnipotens abunde monuerat ne cum C. Caesare ultimam belli fortunam experiri contenderet, egresso a Dyrrachio aduersa agmini eius fulmina iaciens, examinibus apium signa obscurando, subita tristitia implicatis militum animis, nocturnis totius exercitus terroribus, ab ipsis altaribus hostiarum fuga. sed inuictae leges necessitudinis pectus alioquin procul amentia remotum prodigia ista iusta aestimatione perpendere passae non sunt. itaque, dum illa eleuat, auctoritatem amplissimam et opes priuato fastigio excelsiores omniaque ornamenta, quae ab ineunte adulescentia ad inuidiam usque contraxerat, spatio unius diei confregit. quo constat in delubris deum sua sponte signa conuersa, militarem clamorem strepitumque armorum adeo magnum Antiochiae et Ptolemaide auditum, ut in muros concurreretur, sonum tympanorum Pergami abditis delubri editum, palmam uiridem Trallibus in aede Victoriae sub Caesaris statua inter coagmenta lapidum iustae magnitudinis enatam. quibus apparet caelestium numen et Caesaris gloriae fauisse et Pompei errorem inhibere uoluisse.
