Letters to Atticus Passage 3

ego navem paravi. tuas litteras tamen exspecto, ut sciam quid respondeant consultationi meae. Sulmone C. Atium Paelignum aperuisse Antonio portas, cum essent cohortes quinque, Q. Lucretium inde effugisse †scis Gnaeum ire Brundisium desertum†. confecta res est.

I have made a ship ready. Still, I await your letter, so that I may know your answer to my request for advice. You know that at Sulmo Gaius Atius Paelignus opened the gates to Antony, although he had five cohorts, that Quintus Lucretius escaped from there, †that Gnaeus is going to deserted Brundisium†. It is all over.

J’ai préparé un navire. J’attends néanmoins ta lettre, afin de savoir ce que tu réponds à ma consultation. À Sulmone, Gaius Atius Paelignus a ouvert les portes à Antoine alors qu’il disposait de cinq cohortes ; Quintus Lucretius s’en est échappé. †Tu sais que Gnaeus va à Brindes, abandonné†. Tout est fini.
