XXXVII (A II, 10)228
To Atticus (At Rome)
Appii Forum, April
B.C. 59, ÆT. 47
Please admire my consistency. I am determined not to be at the games at Antium: for it is somewhat of a solecism to wish to avoid all suspicion of frivolity, and yet suddenly to be shewn up as travelling for mere amusement, and that of a foolish kind. Wherefore I shall wait for you till the 7th of May at Formiæ. So now let me know what day we shall see you. From Appii Forum, ten o’clock. I sent another a short time ago from Three Taverns.
