The Letters of Cicero, Volume 1

Note 77 — XVIII (A 1, 13)

Evelyn S. (Evelyn Shirley) Shuckburgh translation

See end of Letter XXI. Cicero playfully supposes that Atticus only stayed in his villa in Epirus to offer sacrifices to the nymph in his gymnasium, and then hurried off to Sicyon, where people owed him money which he wanted to get. He goes to Antonius first to get his authority for putting pressure on Sicyon, and perhaps even some military force.
