T. Annius: the name in this form is more dignified than the cognomen Milo alone (which Cicero has hitherto used). He adopts it here in accordance with the more formal tone which he gives to his speech at this point.

per me unum: ut is displaced by the emphasis thrown upon me.

jus, aequitas, leges: as praetor Clodius would have had judicial as well as military power.

esset timendum (ironical), apodosis of si . . . clamaret (l.22).

gaudia, such as that for the victory over Hannibal or for the defeat of the Cimbri and Teutones.

victorias, such as those of Pompey in the East and Caesar in Gaul.

Select Orations of. Cicero. Allen and Greenough's Edition. Revised by J. B. Greenough and G. L. Kittredge, with a special vocabulary by J. B. Greenough.
