But now, what will have been gained by his escape then, beyond making his life appear to have been preserved from the snares of death which then surrounded him for greater grief, and beyond depriving him when dead of a place in his father's tomb 1 He has been long enough, judges, in misery. He has been years enough struggling with odium. No one has been so hostile to him, except his parent, that we may not think his ill-will satisfied by this time. You who are just to all men, who, the more cru...elly any one is. attacked, do the more kindly protect him, preserve Aulus Cluentius, restore him iminjured to his mimicipality. Restore him to his friends, and neighbours, and connexions, whose eagerness in his behalf you see. Bind all those men for ever to you and to your children. This busi- ness, judges, is yours; it is worthy of your dignity, it is worthy of your clemency. This is rightly expected of you, to release a most virtuous and innocent man, one dear and beloved by many men, at last from these his misfortimes ; so that all men may see that odium and Action may be excited in popular assemblies, but that in courts of justice there is room only for truth.
