But what can there be like that in Sicily? Enna is a completely
inland town. Compel (that is the utmost stretch of your authority) the people of
Enna to deliver their corn at the
waterside; they will take it to Phintia, or to Halesa, or to Catina, places all very distant from one another,
the same day that you issue the order; though there is not even need of any carriage
at all; for all this profit of the valuatiEnna to deliver their corn at the
waterside; they will take it to Phintia, or to Halesa, or to Catina, places all very distant from one another,
the same day that you issue the order; though there is not even need of any carriage
at all; for all this profit of the valuation, O judges, arises from the variety in
the price of corn. For a magistrate in a province can manage this,—namely,
to receive it where it is dearest. And therefore that is the way valuations are
managed in Asia and in Spain, and in those provinces in which corn is not
everywhere the same price. But in Sicily
what difference did it make to any one in what place he delivered it? for he had not
to carry

Why are you sitting there, O Verres? What are you waiting for? Why do you say that
you are hemmed in and overwhelmed by the cities of Centuripa, of Catina, of Halesa, of Tyndaris, of Enna, of Agyrium, and by all
the other cities of Sicily? Your second
country, as you used to call it, Messana
herself attacks you; your own Messana I
say; the assistant in your crimes, the witness of your lusts, the receiver of your
booty and your thefts. For the most honourable man of that city is present, a deputy
sent from his home on account of this very trial, the chief actor in the panegyric
on you; who praises you by the public order of his city, for so he has been charged
and commanded to do. Although you recollect, O judges, what he answered when he was
asked about the ship; that it had been built by public labour, at the pub

There is a woman, a citizen of Segesta, very rich, and nobly born, by name
Lamia. She, having her house full of
spinning jennies, for three years was making him robes and coverlets, all dyed with
purple; Attalus, a rich man at Netum;
Lyso at Lilybaeum; Critolaus at Enna; at Syracuse Aeschrio, Cleomenes, and Theomnastus; at Elorum Archonides
and Megistus. My voice will fail me before the names of the men whom he employed in
this way will; he himself supplied the purple—his friends supplied only
the work, I dare say; for I have no wish to accuse him in every particular, as if it
were not enough for me, with a view to accuse him, that he should have had so much
to give, that he should have wished to carry away so many things; and, besides all
that, this thing which he admits, namely, that he should
