section 46 Flashcards
Quo tempore ego quanta mala florentissimae familiae sedavi vel potius sustuli!
How great evils I settled or rather removed from this outstanding family at this time!
Patri persuasi, ut aes alienum filii dissolveret, redimeret adulescentem summa spe et animi et ingenii praeditum rei familiaris facultatibus eumque non modo tua familiaritate, sed etiam congressione patrio iure et potestate prohiberet.
I persuaded the father to dissolve his son’s debt, to buy back with the resources of his family the young man, endowed with greatest promise of mind and character and to prevent not only friendship with you but also meeting using control and power of a father.
Haec tu cum per me acta meminisses, nisi illis, quos videmus, gladiis confideres, maledictis me provocare ausus esses?
When you remember that these deeds had been done through me, would you dare to challenge me with insults, if you were not trusting in these swords which we see?
