nunc ad ea quae quaeris de C. Catone. lege Iunia et Licinia scis absolutum; Fufia ego tibi nuntio absolutum iri neque patronis suis tam libentibus quam accusatoribus. is tamen et mecum et cum Milone in gratiam rediit. Drusus reus est factus a Lucretio. iudicibus reiciendis dies est dictus a. d. v Non. Quint. de Procilio rumores non boni, sed iudicia nosti. Hirrus cum Domitio in gratia est. senatus consultum quod hi consules de provinciis fecerunt quicumque posthac - non mihi videtur esse valiturum.

Now to what you ask about Gaius Cato. You know that he was acquitted under the Junian and Licinian law; I tell you that he will be acquitted under the Fufian law too, to the satisfaction not so much of his advocates as of his prosecutors. Nevertheless, he has become reconciled both with me and with Milo. Drusus has been prosecuted by Lucretius. The day for challenging the jurors was set for the fifth day before the Nones of Quintilis. Rumors about Procilius are unfavorable, but you know our courts. Hirrus is reconciled with Domitius. The decree these consuls passed concerning the provinces, whoever hereafter... does not seem to me likely to stand.

J’en viens maintenant à ce que tu demandes au sujet de C. Caton. Tu sais qu’il a été acquitté au titre des lois Junia et Licinia. Quant à la loi Fufia, je t’annonce qu’il sera acquitté, et ses défenseurs ne le souhaitent pas autant que ses accusateurs. Il s’est néanmoins réconcilié avec moi et avec Milon. Drusus a été mis en accusation par Lucretius. Le jour fixé pour la récusation des juges est le cinquième avant les nones de juillet. Les bruits concernant Procilius ne sont pas bons, mais tu connais les tribunaux. Hirrus s’est réconcilié avec Domitius. Le sénatus-consulte que les consuls ont pris sur les provinces, quiconque désormais... ne me paraît pas devoir rester valide.
