“Ut saepe hominēs aegrī morbō gravī cum aestū febrīque iactantur, sī aquam gelidam bibērunt, prīmō relevārī videntur, deinde multō gravius vehementiusque afflīctantur; sīc hic morbus, quī est in rē pūblicā, relevātus istīus poenā vehementius reliquīs vīvīs ingravēscet.”

As often when people gravely sick with illness are tormented by heat and fever, if they have drank cold water, at first they seem to be relieved, [yet] afterward are afflicted much more seriously and more violently; thus this illness, which is in the Republic, [were it to be] relieved by the punishment of that [man], will grow worse more violently with the remaining [conspirators] [still] alive.
