7. οὗτοί τε οὖν οὕτως ἔρρωντο, καὶ ὁ Ἀντώνιος τοῦτο μὲν ἀντώμοσε τοῖς ἑαυτοῦ στρατιώταις ἀκηρυκτὶ 1 πολεμήσειν, τοῦτο δὲ ὑπέσχετο τήν τε ἀρχὴν ἐντὸς δύο μηνῶν μετὰ τὴν νίκην ἀφήσειν καὶ τὸ πᾶν αὐτῆς κράτος τῇ τε γερουσίᾳ καὶ τῷ δήμῳ [2] ἀποδώσειν. μόλις τε δῆθέν τινες ἔπεισαν αὐτὸν ἕκτῳ μηνὶ τοῦτο ποιῆσαι, ἵνα δὴ κατὰ σχολὴν τὰ πράγματα καταστήσηται. καὶ ὁ μέν, εἰ καὶ τὰ μάλιστα μὴ ἔμελλεν αὐτὸ πράξειν, ἀλλ᾽ ὡς πάντῃ γε πάντως κρατήσων ἐπηγγέλλετο. τά τε γὰρ ἑαυτοῦ πολὺ τοῖς πλήθεσιν ἰσχυρότερα ἑώρα ὄντα, καὶ τὰ τῶν ἐναντίων ἀσθενώσειν δωροδοκίαις [3] ἤλπιζε: 2 χρυσίον γὰρ ὡς ἑκασταχόσε, καὶ οὐχ ἥκιστα ἔς τε τὴν ἄλλην Ἰταλίαν καὶ ἐς τὴν Ῥώμην ἐσπέμπων διεκίνει τε ὡς ἕκαστα καὶ σφετερίζεσθαι [p. 450] ἐπειρᾶτο. ὅθενπερ καὶ ὁ Καῖσαρ τά τε ἄλλα δι᾽ ἀκριβεστέρας φυλακῆς ἐποιήσατο καὶ χρήματα τοῖς στρατιώταις ἔδωκε.
