[134]
dico practerea illos ipsos reliquos nautas
fame atque inopia rerum omnium confectos fuisse ae perditos;
dico aut omnis extra culpam fuisse, aut, si uni
attribuenda culpa sit, in eo maximam fuisse qui optimam
navem, plurimos nautas haberet, summum imperium obtineret,
aut, si omnes in culpa fuerint, non oportuisse Cleomenen1
constitui spectatorem illorum mortis atque cruciatus;
dico etiam in ipso supplicio mercedem lacrimarum, mercedem
vulneris atque plagae, mercedem funeris ac sepulturae
constitui nefas fuisse.
