Life of Cato the Younger

32.1

Plutarch

translated by Bernadotte Perrin

32By these utterances he brought the senate to unanimity, and many men outside the senate supported him out of displeasure at the strange conduct of Caesar; for whatever political schemes the boldest and most arrogant tribunes were wont to practise to win the favour of the multitude, these Caesar used with the support of consular power, in disgraceful and humiliating attempts to ingratiate himself with the people.40Cf. the Caesar, xiv. 1.
