Latin

perseus-cicero-letters_to_atticus-lat

habes omnia. nunc publice litteras Romam mittere parabam. uberiores erunt quam si ex Amano misissem. at te Romae non fore! sed est totum in eo quid Kalendis Martiis futurum sit. vereor enim ne cum de provincia agetur, si Caesar resistet, nos retineamur. his tu si adesses, nihil timerem.

You have everything. I was now preparing to send an official dispatch to Rome. It will be fuller than if I had sent it from Amanus. But you will not be at Rome! Yet everything depends on what will happen on the Kalends of March. For I fear that when the province is discussed, if Caesar resists, I shall be retained. If you were present for these matters, I should fear nothing.

Tu sais tout. Je préparais maintenant l’envoi d’une dépêche officielle à Rome. Elle sera plus abondante que si je l’avais envoyée depuis l’Amanus. Mais toi, tu ne seras pas à Rome! Tout dépend cependant de ce qui se passera aux calendes de mars. Je crains en effet que, lorsque ma province sera discutée, nous ne soyons retenus si César s’y oppose. Si tu étais présent, je ne craindrais rien.
