Texte grec :
| [9,59] Ἐν δὲ τῷ μετὰ τούτους ἔτει ὕπατοι μὲν
ἦσαν Τιβέριος Αἰμίλιος τὸ δεύτερον καὶ Κόιντος Φάβιος,
ἑνὸς τῶν τριῶν ἀδελφῶν υἱὸς τῶν ἡγησαμένων
τε τῆς ἀποσταλείσης φρουρᾶς εἰς Κρεμέραν, καὶ
διαφθαρέντων ἐκεῖ σὺν τοῖς πελάταις. ἡ δὲ βουλὴ τῶν
δημάρχων ἀνακινούντων πάλιν τὸ πλῆθος ἐπὶ τῇ
κληρουχίᾳ, καὶ συναγωνιζομένου θατέρου τῶν ὑπάτων
αὐτοῖς Αἰμιλίου δόγμα ἐπεκύρωσε, θεραπεῦσαί τε καὶ
ἀναλαβεῖν τοὺς πένητας βουλομένη, διανεῖμαί τινα
μοῖραν αὐτοῖς ἐκ τῆς Ἀντιατῶν χώρας, ἣν τῷ προτέρῳ
ἔτει δόρατι ἑλόντες κατέσχον. καὶ ἀπεδείχθησαν ἡγεμόνες
τῆς κληρουχίας Τίτος Κοίντιος Καπιτωλῖνος, ᾧ
παρέδοσαν Ἀντιᾶται σφᾶς αὐτούς, καὶ σὺν αὐτῷ Λεύκιος
Φούριος καὶ Αὖλος Οὐεργίνιος. ἦν δ´ οὐκ ἀγώνισμα
πᾶσι τοῖς πολλοῖς καὶ πένησι Ῥωμαίων ἡ διανομὴ τῆς
χώρας ὡς ἀπελαυνομένοις τῆς πατρίδος,
ὀλίγων τ´ ἀπογραψαμένων ἔδοξε τῇ βουλῇ, ἐπειδὴ οὐκ
ἀξιόχρεως ἦν ὁ ἀπόστολος, ἐπιτρέψαι Λατίνων τε καὶ
Ἑρνίκων τοῖς βουλομένοις τῆς ἀποικίας μετέχειν. οἱ
μὲν δὴ εἰς Ἄντιον ἀποσταλέντες κατένεμον τὴν γῆν
τοῖς σφετέροις, μοῖράν τινα ἐξ αὐτῆς τοῖς Ἀντιάταις
ὑπολειπόμενοι. ἐν δὲ τῷ μεταξὺ χρόνῳ στρατεία τῶν
ὑπάτων ἀμφοτέρων ἐγένετο, Αἰμιλίου μὲν εἰς τὴν Σαβίνων
χώραν, Φαβίου δ´ εἰς τὴν Αἰκανῶν. καὶ τῷ
μὲν Αἰμιλίῳ πολὺν ἐν τῇ πολεμίᾳ μείναντι χρόνον
οὐδεμία δύναμις ὑπήντησε μαχουμένη περὶ τῆς γῆς,
ἀλλ´ ἀδεῶς αὐτὴν κείρας, ἐπειδὴ καθῆκεν ὁ χρόνος
τῶν ἀρχαιρεσίων, ἀπῆγε τὰς δυνάμεις. Φαβίῳ δ´ Αἰκανοί,
πρὶν εἰς ἀνάγκην ἐλθεῖν στρατιᾶς διαφθαρείσης
ἢ τειχῶν ἁλισκομένων, ἐπεκηρυκεύσαντο περὶ διαλλαγῶν
καὶ φιλίας. ὁ δ´ ὕπατος δύο τε μηνῶν τροφὰς
τῇ στρατιᾷ καὶ δύο χιτῶνας κατ´ ἄνδρα καὶ ἀργύριον
εἰς ὀψωνιασμὸν ἑξαμήνου καὶ εἴ τι ἄλλο κατήπειγεν
εἰσπραξάμενος, ἀνοχὰς ἐποιήσατο πρὸς αὐτούς, ἕως ἂν
εἰς Ῥώμην ἀφικόμενοι παρὰ τῆς βουλῆς εὕρωνται τὰς
διαλύσεις. ἡ μέντοι βουλὴ ταῦτα μαθοῦσα τῷ Φαβίῳ
ἐπέτρεψεν αὐτοκράτορι διαλύσασθαι πρὸς τοὺς Αἰκανούς,
ἐφ´ οἷς ἂν αὐτὸς προαιρῆται. μετὰ τοῦτο συνθῆκαι
γίνονται ταῖς πόλεσι μεσιτεύσαντος αὐτὰς τοῦ
ὑπάτου τοιαίδε· Αἰκανοὺς εἶναι Ῥωμαίων ὑπηκόους
πόλεις τε καὶ χώρας τὰς ἑαυτῶν ἔχοντας, ἀποστέλλειν
δὲ Ῥωμαίοις μηδὲν ὅτι μὴ στρατιάν, ὅταν αὐτοῖς
παραγγελῇ, τέλεσι τοῖς ἰδίοις ἐκπέμποντας {αὐτάς}. ταῦτα
συνθέμενος ἀπῆγε τὴν δύναμιν Φάβιος καὶ εἰς τὸν
ἐπιόντα ἐνιαυτὸν ἀρχὰς ἅμα τῷ συνυπάτῳ κατέστησεν.

Traduction française :
| [9,59] The following year the consuls were Tiberius Aemilius (for the second time) and
Quintus Fabius, the son of one of the three brothers who had commanded the
garrison that was sent out to Cremera and had perished there together with their
clients. As the tribunes, supported by Aemilius, one of the consuls, were again
stirring up the populace over the land-allotment, the senate, wishing both to court
and to relieve the poor, passed a decree to divide among them a certain part of the
territory of the Antiates which they had taken by the sword the year before and now
held.Those appointed as leaders in the allotting of the land were Titus Quintius
Capitolinus, (p123) to whom the Antiates had surrendered themselves, together with
Lucius Furius and Aulus Verginius. But the masses and the poor among the Romans
were dissatisfied with the proposed assignment of land, feeling that they were being
banished from the fatherland; and when few gave in their names, the senate
resolved, since the list of colonists was insufficient, to permit such of the Latins and
Hernicans as so desired to join the colony. The triumvirs, accordingly, who were sent
to Antium divided the land among their people, leaving a certain part of it to the Antiates.
Meanwhile both consuls took the field, Aemilius marching into the country of the
Sabines and Fabius into that of the Aequians. Aemilius, though he remained a long
time in the enemy's country, encountered no army ready to fight for it, but ravaged it
with impunity; then, when the time for the elections was at hand, he led his forces
home. To Fabius the Aequians, even before they were compelled to do so by the
destruction of their army or the capture of their walls, sent heralds to sue for a
reconciliation and friendship. The consul, after exacting from them two months'
provisions for his army, two tunics for every man and six months' pay, and whatever
else was urgently required, concluded a truce with them till they should go to Rome
and obtain the terms of peace from the senate. The senate, however, when informed
of this, gave Fabius full power to make peace with the Aequians upon such terms as
he himself should elect.After that the two nations by the mediation of the consul
made a (p125) treaty as follows: the Aequians were to be subject to the Romans while
still possessing their cities and lands, and were not to send anything to the Romans
except troops, when so ordered, these to be maintained at their own expense. Fabius,
having made this treaty, returned home with his army and together with his fellow
consul nominated magistrates for the following year.
