25. ibi cum Romani legati disceptatorum loco, Thessali Perrhaebique et Athamanes haud dubii accusatores, Philippus ad audienda crimina tamquam reus consedissent, [2] pro ingenio quisque eorum, qui principes legationum erant, et gratia cum Philippo aut odio acerbius leniusve egerunt. [3] in controversiam autem veniebant Philippopolis Tricca Phaloria et Eurymenae et cetera circa eas oppida, [4] utrum, Thessalorum iuris cum essent, vi ademptae possessaeque ab Aetolis forentnam Philippum Aetolis ademisse eas constabat—, an Aetolica antiquitus ea oppida fuissent: [5] ita enim Acilium regi concessisse, si Aetolorum fuissent, et si voluntate, non si vi atque armis coacti cum Aetolis essent. [6] eiusdem formulae disceptatio de Perrhaeborum Magnetumque oppidis fuit: omnium enim iura possidendo per occasiones Aetoli miscuerant. [7] ad haec, quae disceptationis erant, querellae Thessalorum adiectae, quod ea oppida, si iam redderentur sibi, spoliata ac deserta redditurus esset: [8] nam praeter belli casibus amissos quingentos principes iuventutis in Macedoniam abduxisse, et opera eorum in servilibus abuti ministeriis; et quae reddiderit coactus Thessalis, inutilia ut redderet curasse. [9] Thebas Phthias unum maritimum emporium fuisse quondam Thessalis quaestuosum et frugiferum: ibi navibus onerariis comparatis regem, quae praeter Thebas Demetriadem cursum derigerent. negotiationem maritimam omnem eo avertisse. [10] iam ne a legatis quidem, qui iure gentium sancti sint. violandis abstinere: insidias positas euntibus ad T. Quinctium. [11] itaque ergo in tantum metum omnes Thessalos coniectos, ut non in civitatibus suis, non in communibus gentis conciliis quisquam hiscere audeat. procul enim abesse libertatis auctores Romanos: lateri adhaerere gravem dominum, prohibentem uti beneficiis populi Romani. quid autem, si vox libera non sit. liberum esse? [12] nunc se fiducia et praesidio legatorum ingemiscere magis quam loqui. nisi provideant aliquid [p. 25] Romani, quo et Graecis Macedoniam accolentibus metus et audacia Philippo minuatur, nequiquam et illum victum et se liberatos esse. [13] ut equum tenacem, non parentem frenis asperioribus castigandum esse. haec acerbe postremi, [14] cum priores leniter permulsissent iram eius petentes, [15] ut ignosceret pro libertate loquentibus, et ut deposita domini acerbitate adsuesceret socium atque amicum sese praestare, et imitaretur populum Romanum, qui caritate quam metu adiungere sibi socios mallet. [16] Thessalis auditis Perrhaebi Gonnocondylum, quod Philippus Olympiadem appellaverat, Perrhaebiae fuisse, et ut sibi restitueretur, agebant; et de Malloea et Ericinio eadem postulatio erat. [17] Athamanes libertatem repetebant et castella Athenaeum et Poetneum.
