50.2 But the mistress he most loved, was Servilia, the mother of Marcus Brutus, for whom he purchased, in his first consulship after the commencement of their intrigue, a pearl which cost him six millions of sesterces; and in the civil war, besides other presents, assigned to her, for a trifling consideration, some valuable farms when they were exposed to public auction. Many persons expressing their surprise at the lowness of the price, Cicero wittily remarked, To let you know the real value of the purchase, between ourselves, Tertia was deducted: for Servilia was supposed to have prostituted her daughter Tertia to Caesar.A double entendre; Tertia signifying the third [of the value of the farm], as well as being the name of the girl, for whose favours the deduction was made.
51.1 That he had intrigues likewise with married women in the provinces, appears from this distich, which was as much repeated in the Gallic triumph as the former: Watch well your wives, ye cits, we bring a blade, A bald-pate master of the wenching trade. Thy gold was spent on many a Gallic w—e; Exhausted now, thou com'st to borrow more.Urbani, servate uxores; meechum calvum adducimus: Aurum in Gallia effutuisti, hic sumpsisti mutuum.
