Add, besides the wrecks of
Caesar's party, the Barbae Cassii, the Barbatii, the Pollios; add the companions
and fellow-gamblers of Antonius, Eutrapelus, and Mela, and Caelius, and Pontius,
and Crassicius, and Tiro, and Mustela, and Petissius; I say nothing of the main
body, I am only naming the leaders. To these are added the legionaries of the
Alauda and the rest of the veterans, the seminary of the judges of the third
decury; who, having exhausted their own estates, and squandered all the fruits
of Caesar's kindness, have now set their hearts on our fortunes.
