普鲁塔克:希腊罗马名人传·摘录 107
普鲁塔克《希腊罗马名人传》· Plutarch's Lives · 领导 · 财富 · 行动
Pompey, finding he had not sufficient forces, and that those he could raise, were not very resolute, forsook the city. Cato, resolving to follow Pompey into exile, sent his younger son to Munatius, who was then in the country of Bruttium, and took his eldest with him; but wanting somebody to keep his house and take care of his daughters, he took Marcia again, who was now a rich widow, Hortensius being dead, and having left her all his estate. Caesar afterward made use of this action also, to reproach him with covetousness, and a mercenary design in his marriage. "For," said he, "if he had need of wife, why did he part with her? And if he had not, why did he take her again? Unless he gave her only as a bait to Hortensius; and lent her when she was young, to have her again when she was rich." But in answer to this, we might fairly apply the saying of Euripides.

白话
庞培发现兵力不足,能召集的人也不坚定,就弃城而走。加图决定跟随庞培流亡,先把小儿子送到布鲁提乌姆的穆纳提乌斯那里,自己带长子同行;但需要有人看家和照顾女儿,于是他又娶回了玛尔西娅。她此时已是富有的寡妇,因为霍滕修斯死了,把全部财产留给了她。凯撒后来拿这件事指责加图贪财,说这桩婚姻别有用心:如果需要一个妻子,为什么休掉她?如果不需要,为什么又娶回来?除非是把她当诱饵送给霍滕修斯,年轻时借出去,等她有钱了再收回来。但反驳这种说法,我们可以恰当地引用欧里庇得斯的话。
