14 I, 1 | openly prepared against Caesar, advised him to concentrate
15 I, 1 | oppressed by a few daring men. Caesar, although he was not ignorant
16 I, 1 | these acts were performed by Caesar, with the hope that his
17 I, 1 | to oppose them. But when Caesar could not obtain his request
18 I, 1 | reason could exist that he [Caesar] should disband his troops

29 I, 4 | censor, offered to go to Caesar: as did likewise Lucius
30 I, 4 | commissioners should be sent to Caesar to acquaint him with the
31 I, 5 | Cato. An old grudge against Caesar and chagrin at a defeat

36 I, 6 | decrees were passed against Caesar's government, and against

41 I, 9 | him. Thither came Lucius Caesar, a young man, whose father
42 I, 9 | lieutenant-general under Caesar. He, after concluding the
43 I, 9 | purpose he had come, told Caesar that he had commands of
44 I, 9 | wished to clear himself to Caesar, lest he should impute those
45 I, 9 | private connections; that Caesar, too, for his own honor,
46 I, 9 | praetor, conferred with Caesar almost in the same words,
47 I, 10 | either let Pompey come to Caesar, or allow Caesar to go to

50 I, 11 | Pompey, and declared to them Caesar's terms. Having deliberated
51 I, 11 | purport of which was, that Caesar should return into Gaul,
52 I, 11 | security was given that Caesar would perform his promises,

54 I, 12 | another, and desire that Caesar's army should be disbanded,
55 I, 12 | should not set out till after Caesar's consulate expired, yet
56 I, 12 | peace appear very hopeless. Caesar, therefore, sent Marcus
57 I, 13 | of all the inhabitants. Caesar, having received an account
58 I, 14 | 1.13]Upon news of Caesar's approach, the senate of
59 I, 14 | freemen would suffer Caius Caesar, a general, who had merited
60 I, 14 | introduced, and fled. A fear of Caesar's front rank having pursued
61 I, 14 | homes, the rest come over to Caesar; and along with them, Lucius
62 I, 14 | prisoner and brought to Caesar. He had held the same rank
63 I, 14 | Cneius Pompey's army. But Caesar applauded the soldiers of

68 I, 16 | twelfth legion came to join Caesar; with these two he marched
69 I, 16 | but, on being informed of Caesar's approach, he fled from
70 I, 16 | Aenobarbus, and informed him that Caesar was advancing with two legions.
71 I, 17 | 1.16]Caesar, having recovered Asculum
72 I, 17 | taking place there with Caesar's advanced-guard, Domitius'
73 I, 17 | precipitately into the town. Caesar, having marched his legions
74 I, 18 | to his assistance. That Caesar could be easily inclosed
75 I, 19 | time, word was brought to Caesar that the people of Sulmo,
76 I, 19 | that he might be sent to Caesar. Antonius returned the same
77 I, 19 | the cohorts and Attius. Caesar added these cohorts to his
78 I, 19 | safety. The three first days Caesar employed in fortifying his
79 I, 21 | that they were besieged by Caesar; that his works and fortifications
80 I, 21 | deputies out of their number to Caesar, to say that they were ready
81 I, 22 | of these matters, though Caesar thought it of great consequence
82 I, 23 | to have an interview with Caesar, if permission were given
83 I, 23 | till they brought him into Caesar's presence. He pleaded with
84 I, 23 | presence. He pleaded with Caesar for his life, and entreated
85 I, 23 | friendship; and acknowledged that Caesar's favors to him were very
86 I, 23 | suit for the consulate. Caesar interrupted him in his speech,

89 I, 25 | three. These having descried Caesar's cavalry at a distance,
90 I, 25 | in with the main body of Caesar's army, others with his
91 I, 25 | the road and brought to Caesar, but sent back by him to
92 I, 27 | weapons, drove them among Caesar's works, to break through
93 I, 27 | arrows, and other weapons. Caesar conducted matters as if
94 I, 27 | engaged in without them. Caesar therefore thought it time
95 I, 28 | 1.27]When Caesar's works were nearly half
96 I, 28 | Pompey, either frightened at Caesar's works or determined from
97 I, 28 | more effectually to retard Caesar's attack, lest his soldiers
98 I, 29 | himself, were in favor of Caesar's party. Therefore, as soon
99 I, 29 | the tops of the houses: Caesar, being apprised of the design
100 I, 29 | ran down to the ships. Caesar's soldiers fixed their ladders
101 I, 29 | which had struck against Caesar's moles. ~
102 I, 30 | 1.29]Though Caesar highly approved of collecting
103 I, 30 | The only resource left to Caesar, was to wait for a fleet

105 I, 33 | why should he debar him [Caesar] from the people's favor?
106 I, 34 | staid in Rome and those in Caesar's camp. Thus three days
107 I, 34 | tribunes, was suborned by Caesar's enemies, to prevent this,
108 I, 34 | embarrass every thing else which Caesar should propose. Caesar having
109 I, 34 | which Caesar should propose. Caesar having discovered his intention,
110 I, 35 | that the late services of Caesar should not erase from their
111 I, 35 | shut their gates against Caesar, and invited over to them
112 I, 36 | 1.35]Caesar sent for fifteen of the
113 I, 36 | Cneius Pompey and Caius Caesar, the two patrons of the
114 I, 37 | Provoked at such ill treatment, Caesar led three legions against
115 I, 40 | raised in both provinces. Caesar had sent his legions into
116 I, 42 | 1.41]In two days after Caesar came to the camp with nine
117 I, 42 | hill, near his camp. When Caesar perceived that Afranius
118 I, 43 | 1.42]In the evening Caesar drew his legions within
119 I, 43 | challenged us to battle. Caesar, however, did not interrupt
120 I, 43 | their camp. The third day Caesar fortified his camp with
121 I, 44 | raised above the level: Caesar hoped that if he could get
122 I, 46 | expectations and custom, Caesar encouraged his men and led
123 I, 46 | might relieve the weary. Caesar was obliged to do the same,
124 I, 49 | caused great difficulties to Caesar's army. For as our camp,
125 I, 49 | states, which had espoused Caesar's cause, furnish him with
126 I, 49 | almost all the corn, before Caesar's arrival, into Ilerda,

131 I, 52 | there were lieutenants of Caesar's. The river stopped them
132 I, 53 | considered to have the advantage. Caesar demanded from those states
133 I, 55 | 1.54]When Caesar's affairs were in this unfavorable
134 I, 55 | bridges could not be prepared, Caesar ordered his soldiers to
135 I, 58 | in number of ships; but Caesar had appointed to that fleet
136 I, 59 | maneuvered. Therefore, when Caesar's men had an opportunity
137 I, 60 | this battle was brought to Caesar at Ilerda, the bridge being
138 I, 61 | Oscenses, send embassadors to Caesar, and offer to submit to
139 I, 61 | their state, came over to Caesar, from the place where they
140 I, 61 | powerful states being joined to Caesar, a way opened for the receiving
141 I, 61 | and enter into league with Caesar. ~
142 I, 62 | dismayed at these things, Caesar, that he might not be always

145 I, 63 | being given by the scouts, Caesar continued his work day and
146 I, 64 | across a few days before. Caesar had no resource, but to
147 I, 65 | rising grounds which joined Caesar's camp, that their rear
148 I, 65 | entreated them to inform Caesar that he need not spare their
149 I, 65 | where the horse had crossed. Caesar, encouraged by their zeal
150 I, 66 | ground and drew up his army. Caesar refreshed his army on the
151 I, 66 | mountains that they might avoid Caesar's cavalry, and, placing
152 I, 66 | till the following day; Caesar likewise encamped on the

155 I, 67 | confined in the narrow roads by Caesar's horse, they put a stop
156 I, 67 | similar movement was made from Caesar's camp. Lucius Decidius
157 I, 68 | raised the night before in Caesar's camp, used this as an
158 I, 68 | the camp unnoticed: "that Caesar's cavalry were patrolling

164 I, 71 | in an oblique direction, Caesar's horse espied them and
165 I, 72 | successfully, nor did it escape Caesar, that an army daunted at
166 I, 73 | 1.72]Caesar had conceived hopes of ending
167 I, 73 | them. This resolution of Caesar was not generally approved
168 I, 73 | an engagement, even when Caesar should wish it. He persevered
169 I, 73 | retired to their camp. Caesar, having disposed parties
170 I, 75 | as deputies to treat with Caesar about a peace. In the mean
171 I, 75 | tribunes and centurions came to Caesar, and paid their respects
172 I, 75 | of being recommended to Caesar. Even Afranius's son, a
173 I, 75 | matter without blows; and Caesar, in every man's judgment,

182 I, 82 | the reasons already given, Caesar did not attack them, nor
183 I, 82 | sent to look for forage. Caesar was more desirous that they
