This news being brought to Brutus in Macedonia, he was under a compulsion, and sent orders to Hortensius that he should kill Caius Antonius in revenge of the death of Cicero his friend, and Brutus his kinsman, who also was proscribed and slain. Upon this account it was that Antony, having afterwards taken Hortensius in the battle of Philippi, slew him upon his brother's tomb. But Brutus expresses himself as more ashamed for the cause of Cicero's death than grieved for the misfortune of it, and says he cannot help accusing his friends at Rome, that they were slaves more through their own doing than that of those who now were their tyrants; they could be present and see and yet suffer those things which even to hear related ought to them to have been insufferable.

白话
布鲁图斯在 Macedonia 得知西塞罗被杀，出于被迫，下令让霍滕修斯杀死安东尼的弟弟盖乌斯·安东尼，为朋友西塞罗和亲戚布鲁图斯报仇。后来安东尼在腓立比战役中抓到霍滕修斯，就在兄弟墓前杀了他。但布鲁图斯对西塞罗之死更感到羞耻而非悲伤，他责怪罗马的朋友们：他们沦为奴隶更多是自己造成的，而非暴君所致；他们明明在场，却眼睁睁看着那些事发生，而那些事光是听说就该让人无法忍受。

今日一问
面对不公时，我们是否也常在场却沉默，事后才责怪他人？
