For who is there who does not see clearly that, if Caesar had not prepared an
army, the return of Antonius must have been accompanied by our destruction? For,
in truth, he returned in such a state of mind, burning with hatred of you all,
stained with the blood of the Roman citizens, whom he had murdered at Suessa and
at Brundusium, that he thought
of nothing but the utter destruction of the republic. And what protection could
have been found for your safety and for your liberty if the army of Caius Caesar
had not been composed of the bravest of his father's soldiers? And with respect
to his praises and honors,—and he is entitled to divine and
everlasting honors for his godlike and undying services,—the senate
has just consented to my proposals, and has decreed that a motion be submitt

I come now to Caius Caesar, O conscript fathers; if he had not existed, which of
us could have been alive now? That most intemperate of men, Antonius, was flying
from Brundusium to the city,
burning with hatred, with a disposition hostile to all good men, with an army.
What was there to oppose to his audacity and wickedness? We had not as yet any
generals, or any forces. There was no public council, no liberty; our necks were
at the mercy of his nefarious cruelty; we were all preparing to have recourse to
flight, though flight itself had no escape for us. Who was it—what god was it; who at that time gave
to the Roman people this godlike young man, who, while every means for
completing our destruction seemed open to that most pernicious citizen, rising
up on a sudden, beyond every one

But if we can rescind those decrees which we have passed, can we also efface the
memory of the facts? For where will any posterity forget to whose wickedness it
was owing that we have been arrayed in these unseemly garments? Although the
blood of the centurions of the Martial legion shed at Brundusium be washed out, can the
notoriety of that inhuman act be washed out too? To pass over things which
happened in the interval, what lapse of time will ever efface the foul memorials
of his military works around Mutina,
the tokens of his wickedness, the traces of his piratical conduct?
What then, in the name of the immortal gods!
have we which we can grant in the way of concession to this polluted and impious
parricide? Are we to yield up to him the farther Gaul, and an army? This is
