- αʹ Cicero, Ad Atticum 16.7:
| quae cum audissem, sine ulla dubitatione abieci consilium profectionis quo me hercule ne antea quidem delectabar. | When I had heard all that, I put aside, without any doubt, my plan for departure—which, I swear, I wasn't fond of even before that. |
- βʹ M. Antonius, ap. Cicero, Ad Atticum 14.13a:
| occupationibus est factum meis et subita tua profectione ne tecum coram de hac re agerem. quam ob causam vereor ne absentia mea levior sit apud te. | It happened that because of my business and your sudden departure that I couldn't pursue this matter with you in person, so I worry that, due to my being away, it might seem less important to you. |
