“Sīn autem servīre meae laudī et glōriae māvīs, ēgredere cum importūnā scelerātōrum manū, cōnfer tē ad Mānlium, concitā perditōs cīvēs, sēcerne tē ā bonīs, īnfer patriae bellum, exsultā impiō latrōciniō, ut ā mē nōn ēiectus ad aliēnōs, sed invītātus ad tuōs īsse videāris.”

But if, however, you prefer to serve my credit and reputation, then depart with your wicked band of criminals, join yourself to Manlius, stir up the desperate citizens, separate yourself from the good [ones], wage war against the nation, and exult in [your] unholy banditry, so that you may appear not to have been thrown out by me to strangers, but to have gone to your own [people] after being invited.
