Marcus Tullius Cicero→Terentia|c. 53 BC|Cicero|From Rome|To Rome|Human translated
If you are well, I am glad, and I am well. I have at last received a letter from Caesar, sufficiently generous, and he himself is said to be coming sooner than expected. Whether I shall go to meet him or wait for him here, when I have decided I shall let you know. Please send the couriers back to me as soon as possible. Take most careful care of your health. Farewell. Dated the day before the Ides of August.
CDXLI (Fam. XIV, 23) TO TERENTIA (AT ROME) BRUNDISIUM, 12 AUGUST: If you are well, I am glad. I am well. At last I have Caesar 's letter, and a kind enough one it is. He himself is said to be coming quicker than was thought. When I have made up my mind whether to go to meet him or await him here, I will let you know. I should like you to send letter-carriers at the first opportunity. Take good care of your health. Good-bye. 12 August.
XXIII. Scr. Brundisii prid. Idus Sextiles a.u.c. 707. TULLIUS TERENTIAE SUAE S. D.
S. v. b. e. e. v. Redditae mihi tandem sunt a Caesare litterae satis liberales, et ipse opinione celerius venturus esse dicitur; cui utrum obviam procedam, an hic eum exspectem, cum constituero, faciam te certiorem. Tabellarios mihi velim quam primum remittas. Valetudinem tuam cura diligenter. Vale. D. pr. Id. Sext.
