Bruto Imp. 30 11 15 Although your letter liked me wonderfully well yet it did me more good that in your greatest imployment you charged your fellow Officer Plancus to excuse you to me by writing which thing he performed carefully Surely I can like nothing better v. but nothing more amiable to me then your dutifulnes and readinesse Your inwardnesse v. y. joining together with your league-fellow and your good agreement together which is manifested by letters written jointly together v. by common l. falles out most acceptably to the Senatours v. to the Senate Citizens of Rome As for that which remaineth on forward good Brutus and now striue you not with others but with your selfe I should not write many things especially unto you whom I purpose to use as my authour for brevity I doe earnestly looke for your letter and indeed such as I do most wish Fare you well Marcus Cicero S.D. T.

D. Cassio 34 12 9 The shortnesse of your letter makes me shorter too in writing and to speake the truth I remēber not matter sufficient to write of for I am well assured that our affaires were brought unto you even when they were a doing v. in the deedes or in things done but we are ignorant of yours For as though Asia were shut up so nothing is brought unto vs but rumors that Dolabella hath the worst v. of Dola oppressed and such indéed as do hold v they indeed constant enough but hitherto without author When wee thought that the warre was ended sodainely we were brought into very great sorrow by your kinsman Lepidus v. by y.

Ampio Ralbo 22 10 29 I am perswaded v.

Planco imp cos des 24 10 14 O welcome report two dayes before the victory of your helpe of your care of your speedinesse of your army But the enemies being dispersed all the hope is in you For the best knowne ring-leaders of the robbers are reported to be fled out of Moden battell v. of Mutine b. And it is no lesse thankworthy to dispatch the last then to chase away the first I surely before this did expect your letter together with many other and did also hope that Lepidus admonished by the times with you would also giue cōtent unto the common-wealth id est would thinke as you doe and satisfie the c. w. verbatim to be about to doe with you and sufficiently for the common-wealth Therefore my good Plancus bend all your force to that charge id est T. my g.

D. Plancio 26 4 15. I haue received your very short letter wherein I could not know that which I desired to understand I perceived that y e I doubted not of For I understood not how well you bore the common calamities but I easily perceiued how well you loved mee yet I had had proofe of this v. But I had knowne this if I had knowne that I would haue framed my letter thereunto But although I writ before those things which I thought meet to be signified vnto you v. to be written Yet I thought you were to be put in minde in a word or twaine v. briefly at this time that you should not thinke that you were in any private dāger We all are in great but yet in the common Wherefore you ought not either to desire a private and singular estate v. a proper and speciall fortune or to refuse the common And therefore let vs carry y e minde one towards another v. let vs bee of that mind betweene our selues as we haue alwayes done Which I may hope for on your part and performe on mine owne Fare you well Cicero S.D.

Cassio 55 12 6 You may know of C. Titius Strabo v. some say Tidius an honest man and iudging rightly of the coÌ„mon wealth for what shall I say one that loues you exceedingly v. most desirous of you who leauing house goods came principally vnto you What were the state of matters at that time when I sent this Letter Therefore I doe not so much as recommend him unto you his owne comming shall recommend him sufficiently unto you I would that you so thinke and perswade your selfe that all the refuge for good men stands v. to bee put placed in your selfe and Brutus if which I would be loath any â—ucethwartnesse v. adversity shall 〈◊〉 Our 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈…〉 these things were brought unto y e very last push v. into utter danger For Brutus hardly at this time held out before Moden v. b.

Cornificio collegae 56 12 17 Your remembrance of us which you signified in your letter is excéedingly well pleasing unto me which I desire earnestly that you would continue v. t. you w. preserue not that I doubt of your constancy but because the manner of desiring is so Some very seditious matters are told us out of Syria which because they be neerer you then us do the rather move me for your sake then for mine owne There is exceeding great quietnesse at Rome but so that one would rather haue v. th.y.w. rather haue some good v. wholesome commendable employment v. a. honest businesse which I hope will be because I perceiue v. I see Caesar hath care therof v. t. to be a care to C. Know you that I so long as you be away haue gotten as it were some occasion and liberty to write more boldly and indeed perchance the rest which even your selfe would yeeld unto But last of all I haue written of the best kind of pleading Wherein many times I haue feared that you do a little dissent from our opinion namely so as one learned man from another not vnlearned I could most heartily wish that you would giue approbation to this brooke out of your iudgement if not for affection sake v. for the cause of fauour I will bid your friends to write it out v. t. they write it ouer if they would and send it unto you For I am of this minde v. f. I thinke although you shal hardly like of the worke yet in this great leasure v. in th solitarinesse whatsoever comes from me will be well-pleasing unto you Whereas you do recommend your reputation and honour unto me you deale indeed after the fashion of all but I would haue you thus to thinke that I both do attribute very much to the loue which I know to bee reasonably equall v. mutuall betweene us as also y t I haue that conceit of your passing great wit and of your excellent studies and of the hope of most honourable promotion that I can preferre none before you compare with you a few Fare you well Cicero S.P.Q.
