Marcus Caelius to Cicero Epist. 7.
I Know not how soone you desire, to depart from thence; I desire it, the rather, because hitherto the warre of the Parthians, hath ••allen out well with you, for which, while you remaine there, I shall be perplexed, fearing least some sinister accident may disturbe my ioy. I write briefely, because the messenger, who carries the Taxe-ma∣sters letters, hastens his departure.
Yesterday by your Freeman, I wrote at large. There is no newes: except I should write these, which vndoubtedly you desire. Cornificius, the young man, hath concluded a mariage with the daughter of Orestilla. Paulla Valeria, sister ••o Triarius, without any occasion brake off the marriage, on the day that her husband, should haue arriue•• o••t of the Prouince. She is to be mar••••ed to Decimus Brutus, but yet they h••ue not publis••'t the matrimonie. Many incredible matters of this nature, ••••ue hapned. Seruius Ocella, could neuer make men beleeue, that hee was an a∣dulterer, but that in lesse th••n three daies, he was taken twice in ••he act. Shall I tell you where? where certaine∣ly I would not. I'le giue you leaue to aske of some o••her. Neither doe I dis∣like, that an Imperator, be inquisi••••ue, who hath beene discouered, and wi••h what woman. Farewell.
