There are three things, as I think, which are at the present time hindrances to Sextus
Roscius:—the charge brought by his adversaries, their audacity, and their
power. Erucius has taken on himself the pressing of this false charge as accuser; the

Chrysogonus, as being the person of the greatest influence, employs his influence in the
contest. On all these points I am aware that I must speak.
