Do you
think then that any one will doubt that he who ought to be most hostile to you, who
has received the severest injuries from you, paid money on account of a statue to
you because he was compelled by violence and authoritative command, not out of
kindness and by his own free will? And I have neither counted up, nor been able to
count, O judges, the amount of this money, which is very large, and which has been
most shamelessly extorted from unwilling men, so as to estimate how much was
extorted from agriculturists, how much from traders who trade at Syracuse, at Agrigentum, at Panormus, at Lilybaeum; since
you see by even his own confession that it was extorted from most unwilling
contributors.

I will relate to you this fact, O judges, most truly. I recollect that Pamphilus of
Lilybaeum, a connection of mine by ties
of hospitality, and a personal friend of mine, a man of the highest birth, told me,
that when that man had taken from him, by his absolute power, an ewer made by the
hand of Boethus, of exquisite workmanship and great weight, he went home very sad in
truth, and greatly agitated, because a vessel of that sort, which had been left to
him by his father and his forefathers, and which he was accustomed to use on days of
festival, and on the arrival of ancient friends, had been taken from him. While I
was sitting at home, said he, in great indignation, up comes one of the slaves of
Venus; he orders me immediately to bring to the praetor some embossed goblets. I was
greatly vexed, said he; I had

But that my discourse may return to Lilybaeum, from which I have made this digression, there is a man
named Diocles, the son-in-law of Pamphilus, of that Pamphilus from whom the ewer was
taken away, whose surname is Popillius. From this man he took away every article on
his sideboard where his plate was set out. He may say, if he pleases, that he had
bought them. In fact, in this case, by reason of the magnitude of the robbery, an
entry of it, I imagine, has been made in the account-books. He ordered Timarchides
to value the plate. How did he do it? At as low a price as any one ever valued any
thing presented to an actor. Although I have been for some time acting foolishly in
saying as much about your purchases, and in asking whether you bought the things,
and how, and at what price you bought them, when I can settle all that by

You also took away at Lilybaeum whatever
silver vessels you chose from Marcus Caelius, a Roman knight, a most excellent young
man. You did not hesitate to take away the whole furniture, of Caius Cacurius, a
most active and accomplished man, and of the greatest influence ng was ever
better done by you. But it certainly was not right that the statue of Apollo should
have been taken away from Lyso of Lilybaeum, I a most eminent man, with whom you had been staying as a
guest. But you will say that you bought it—I know that—for six
hundred ay; I
will produce the accounts; and yet that ought not to have been done. Will you say
that the drinking vessels with emblems of Lilybaeum on them were, bought from Heius, the minor to whom
Marcellus is guardian, whom you had plundered of a large sum of money, or will you
