## Passage 16.3.5

### Latin

maxime autem me angit ratio reliquorum meorum. quae quamquam explicata sunt, tamen, quod et Dolabellae nomen in iis est et in attributione mihi nomina ignota, conturbor, nec me ulla res magis angit ex omnibus. itaque non mihi videor errasse quod ad Balbum scripsi apertius ut, si quid tale accidisset ut non concurrerent nomina, subveniret meque tibi etiam mandasse ut, si quid eius modi accidisset, cum eo communicares. quod facies, si tibi videbitur, eoque magis, si proficisceris in Epirum.

### English

What troubles me most, however, is the state of my outstanding obligations. Although arrangements have been made, I am alarmed because Dolabella's name is among them and because some of the debtors in the assignment are unknown to me. Nothing troubles me more than this. I therefore think I was not wrong to write more openly to Balbus, asking him to assist if it happened that the debts receivable did not match the debts payable, and also to instruct you to consult him if anything of that sort occurred. Please do so, if you think fit, especially if you leave for Epirus.

### French

Ce qui m’angoisse le plus est la situation de mes autres obligations. Bien qu’elles soient réglées, le nom de Dolabella figure parmi elles et les débiteurs inscrits dans l’attribution me sont inconnus; cela me bouleverse, et rien de tout cela ne m’angoisse davantage. Aussi ne crois-je pas avoir eu tort d’écrire assez ouvertement à Balbus afin qu’il me secourût s’il arrivait que les créances ne coïncidassent pas; et je crois t’avoir également demandé de lui en parler si quelque chose de ce genre survenait. Tu le feras, si tu le juges bon, surtout si tu pars pour l’Épire.
