  • αʹ Cicero, Ad Atticum 7.8:
habebamus autem in manibus Antoni contionem habitam x Kal. Ian., in qua erat accusatio Pompei usque a toga pura, querela de damnatis, terror armorum. Nevertheless we had in our hands the address that Antony gave on the 21st of December; in it was an indictment of Pompey going all the way back to when he put on the toga of manhood, a complaint about those who had been condemned, and the threat of arms.
